6. R2-KT 501st Legion/Clone Wars Droid

One that'll really pluck your heartstrings, this pink R2-KT droid was actually built by Albin Johnson, founder of the fan community the 501st Legion, after his daughter was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.

The droid went on to cameo in the Clone Wars movie and TV show, and in the live-action Force Awakens, can be seen on the rebel base when Finn and Poe are reunited. In LEGO The Force Awakens, the droid is sitting tucked away to the left-hand side of the main room once you load into the base itself.

It may not be an 'easter egg' in the traditional sense as it's sitting in plain view, but once you know the story behind its creation, the fact Traveller's Tales included it is pretty damn special.
