Sphero have also built a ‘life sized BB-8’ that has been on display in Sydney, but it cannot move and the article quotes the Sphero CEO as saying – “The creature shop built the props, and they built the ones that move around…”
Info on the Sphero toy stating “Sphero isn’t involved with the creation of the larger versions of the droid you may have seen at events and may come to Disney’s theme parks…”
