Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 30 Easter Eggs & References You Need To See

3. R2-KT

With the Starkiller base destroyed (prematurely for me, but whatever), the heroic X-Wing squadron and the limping Falcon return to their base to the jubilance of their waiting Resistance comrades. The assembled races all celebrate wildly, echoing the end of Return Of The Jedi, except without dancing Ewoks, and if you have nimble eyes, you'll spot pink droid R2-KT to the bottom right of the wide shot. The story of the little droid is pretty heart-warming. In short, she was built in honour of Katie Albin, who died ten years ago (a year before the droid was completed), and has become part of fandom (and the canon) since.
