In 2012, Disney would take reintroduced the Droid Factory from Hasbro at the Disney Parks in Florida and California. This line allowed visitors to create and purchase their own custom astromech droid action figures. Fans could mix and match various interchangeable parts, including fun Disney-themed hats. Unlike Hasbro's The Legacy Collection, this line was a newly independent release that featured no branding from the company. By 2017, the Build-A-Droid line would expand to include protocol droids, which debuted at the Star Wars Celebration Orlando, continuing to capture the massive Star Wars catalog of droids. Since the opening of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge in 2019, the toy line has continued at Droid Depot.

Christmas and Halloween droids are always a treat to see, but now Disney is adding Easter to that list with their newest Disney Parks release. R2-BNE has arrived for the Star Wars Droid Factory line, as R2-D2 gets a new pastel color scheme. This iconic astromech wears a new pink and blue deco with a fun bunny hat for the upcoming Spring holiday. It is nice to see more holiday droids coming to life, and this release will be perfect for Star Wars fan's Easter baskets.
