  - Upcoming Unsifted Videos - active video submissions that neither are published to the front page nor archived to the submitter's personal queue
- Have you seen a really funny, surprising, scary, interesting, cute or in any other way extra good quality video?

"... Over the years, the magic of Star Wars™ has always lived on screen and in our imaginations. Thanks to advancements in technology, Sphero made it possible to bring a new part of Star Wars: The Force Awakens™ into your home.

Meet BB-8™ - the app-enabled Droid™ whose movements and personality are as authentic as they are advanced. Based on your interactions, BB-8 will show a range of expressions and perk up when you give voice commands. Watch your Droid explore autonomously, guide BB-8 yourself, or create and view holographic recordings. BB-8 is more than a toy - it’s your companion..."

"Meet BB-8™ - the app-enabled Droid™ that's as authentic as it is advanced. BB-8 has something unlike any other robot - an adaptive personality that changes as you play. Based on your interactions, BB-8 will show a range of expressions and even perk up when you give voice commands. Set it to patrol and watch your Droid explore autonomously, make up your own adventure and guide BB-8 yourself, or create and view holographic recordings.

It’s now possible to explore the galaxy with your own trusty Astromech Droid by your side. BB-8 is more than a toy - it’s your companion. Learn more: sphero.com/starwars ".

Added alternate embed code for this video - backup requested by ant.

Possibly the most AWESOME Star Wars toy ever has been added as a related post - related requested by ant on that post.

Since you obviously must have a character that translates into a kids toy, fine, this is a huge step up from jar jar and ewoks.

Lucas was a douche for ruining his star wars films with shitty marketing gimmicks. At least better minds are running the show now.

Moving this video to ant's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
