In case you missed it, the actor who was inside the #R2D2 costume, Kenny Baker, passed away yesterday.

Here he is shown here with Jeremy Bulloch, the original actor behind #BobaFett, in a shot captured by Gugge Zelander.

On Facebook, Jeremy shared the following: "He was an amazing person who only two weeks ago was greeting fans and signing autographs at LFCC - we will all miss him greatly - what a superstar he was."

Kenny was born August 24, 1934. He was 81 years old.
