Or so says my 6 year old! icon_biggrin.gif I just wanted to share the finished product with everyone here! Just posted my cake to http://cakespace.blogspot.com/ .

This R2 isn't an exact copy of the original, but made it my own! Hope everyone likes him. So far, I think he's one of my best cakes. icon_razz.gif I didn't pick the brains of anyone on CC for this cake, but have for so many others and have learned sooooo much from you all. Anyway, thanks for letting me share!

Thanks! icon_lol.gif

That cake is jaw dropping good! I can't imagine what the original looked like! What were the dimensions?

I used 5 cake mixes to make this, the cake itself was about 18" long and probably about 11" wide?? I'm guessing now because he's mostly gone! lol I should have thought to measure the cake before the party. icon_rolleyes.gif

Thanks for the compliments. icon_wink.gif

Oh, I love it! What a great job! I like all of your cakes and I love the airplane cake that you did in your pics. It looks exactly like a little toy plane my brother and I used to play with as kids! Looks just like it! Same size and everything. Anyways great job on R2 !

That cake looks wonderful! I like the variation on the original character, and you are right - as long as the birthday boy is happy, everyone should be happy! Beautiful!
