R2-D2 appeared onstage with Anthony (C3PO) Daniels at the Themed Entertainment Association awards at the Disneyland Hotel. The event honored the theme park staff who worked on the Star Tours refurbishment. Mike built a custom-designed tray to allow R2 to carry the heavy acrylic trophy onto the stage for Anthony to present. R2 also used his life form scanner to intercept a transmission of congratulations from George Lucas.
