As a little person, I’m sure he had health problems. Glad he got recognition for R2 and renewed interest lately. RIP Kenny!

He died at 81. A lot of people never make it to 81. That is outstanding for a man.

sometime you should read about what happened to the super tall guy who played Darth Vader not his voice but the the body of Darth Vader.
his payment was for Star Wars was maybe $50,000 and nothing more.
I think he went on to become homeless.
they gave him just that cash payment that was it.

R2D2 always reminded me of this canister vacuum cleaner my mom had when I was a kid.
