It’s been a good year for fans of the Star Wars franchise.

The trailer for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker looks pretty cool, while a sneak preview of what’s to come has us questioning Rey’s commitment to the force.

Disney has also opened the gates to ‘Star Wars Land’, where you can live out your Jedi fantasies and drink blue milk just like Anakin when he was still a cute kid on Naboo.

In the spirit of all things Star Wars-related, Sam Battle – a man who has dedicated his life to building complex electronic instruments  – collaborated with LEGO to bring you the most awesome thing you’ll see this week.

Take it away, Gizmodo:

First revealed back in May, LEGO’s Star Wars Boost Droid Commander set builds on the toymaker’s Boost robotics platform which is a more kid-friendly version of its complex robotic Mindstorms kits. The set is finally available this month, and to prove that kid-friendly doesn’t also mean very limited, the company programmed 95 LEGO droids to create an orchestra that plays real instruments.

The conductor and programmer of the orchestra was Sam Battle who is probably best known for his Look Mum no Computer YouTube channel where he shares builds of custom and often bewilderingly complex electronic instruments—like an organ made from 44 screaming Furby toys.

We’ll return to the screaming Furby toys in a minute.

First, enjoy:

Battle’s collaboration with LEGO took over 3 000 hours to realise.

All in all the 95 droids—which included 46 R2-D2s, 26 mouse droids, and 23 gonk droids—performed John Williams’ iconic Star Wars Main Title theme on 10 xylophones, 10 violins, four cellos, eight electronic keyboards, six electric drums, two gongs, two sets of chimes, two floor drums, and a pair of cymbals.

It’s all really impressive.

Equally impressive, albeit mildly horrifying, is the organ constructed out of Furby toys.

I’ll just leave this here…
