Demolisher weapons droid

An unidentified droid model used by the Pirates of Tarnoonga aboard the Demolisher.

History

While captive aboard the Demolisher, C-3PO and R2-D2 were assigned by Captain Gir Kybo Ren-Cha to work with a droid of unidentified model loading missiles in preparation for an attack on Tammuz-an. As the unidentified droid operated the conveyor belt that carried the missiles, R2-D2 intentionally loaded one of the missiles backward. Once the missile was set to be launched, it would backfire, damaging the pirate's stolen Star Destroyer. To prevent his sabotage from being discovered, R2-D2 maneuvered a large overhead electromagnet over to the weapons droid, picked the droid up, and dropped it on the conveyor belt along with the missiles.

Behind the scenes

An identical droid of the same model and color also appeared in the 1986 Star Wars: Droids TV special The Great Heep.
