The BB-8 astromech droid responds and reacts to the sound of your voice, has an attitude that evolves the more you communicate with it, can patrol a specified route, and is able to send holographic messages to friends and family with the use of a smartphone or tablet. The toy officially goes on sale this Friday as part of Disney and Star Wars‘ “Force Friday” event.
