Star Wars R2-Q5 Measuring Cup Set Straight from the Death Star Kitchen

Posted on by

Back in April, we mentioned the R2-D2 measuring cup set and it was one of the coolest kitchen gadgets I have seen. If R2-D2 is for measuring dry ingredients in the Rebel base kitchen, R2-Q5 is the measuring cup set for the Death Star. If R2-D2 were ever lured to the dark side by cookies, this would be his new color scheme.

The body of R2-Q5 is made from four measuring cups including 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, and 1-cup units. The detachable arms turn into measuring spoons with 1/4, 1/2, 1 teaspoon, and 1/3 tablespoon sizes. The dome of the droid is marked for 1/2 cup and 1 tablespoon measurements.

Yes 1/3 tbsp and 1 tsp are the same, but obviously Artoo isn’t going to stand up with assymetrical legs, so just let it go, ok? But let’s not forget the dome, because R2 is all about the dome. It’s a 1/2 cup and 1 tbsp. It’s kind of like Voltron, but totally different. Let’s break it down into a helpful diagram to see how it’s uhmmm broken down:
