I’m a big fan of unusual Star Wars crafts, but there something not quite right about this R2-D2 taxidermy we spotted on eBay. The mouse with a droid body is kinda cute, but the other way around, not so much.

But for you ultimate collectors (we’re looking at you, Steve Sansweet), this may be too rare a find to pass up.

Here’s what the fan had to say about this unusual mouse droid:

I am selling my homemade R2-D2 mouse mash-up taxidermy set. You probably need one, if you don’t have one already. Good icebreaker conservation piece between Star Wars aficionados and taxidermy buffs.

Note — it is not a professional taxidermy job — they do show some sewing seams and glue seams. Though they have held together quite well over the past year. No mice were harmed, as this guy was already-dead snake food purchased from Petco.
