Junk Sculpture of Star Wars C3PO

I am exploring Emeryville, California, as I commute to work there. There are many warehouses such as Sherwin-Williams paint and Peets Coffee. Old trucks haul loads of garbage bags, scrap metal and junk. Some scrap iron junk was recycled into a complete, life-size Star Wars butler robot C3PO.
