LEGO R2D2 Minifig with Sound and Lights

This is a custom install of a lights and sound board from a Hasbro R2-D2 action figure. I removed the board from the action figure and did some extensive testing and rerouting of the traces and components. This was needed in order to cut the board down small enough to fit inside a LEGO R2-D2 minifig. Everything needed to run the lights and sound are now inside the minifig. I used a 6mm x 6mm tactile switch in the dome and everything is running from a CR1225 battery inside the "body".

Bricklink, part number 4274 (Technic 1/2 pin) comes in a variety of colors including white.

Most of the time was spent modifying the circuit board. Total build time was eight hours if I recall correctly.
