14 Sassiest Droids In The Star Wars Universe
3. BT-1 & 0-0-0
From Marvel’s excellent ongoing Darth Vader series, these evil versions of Artoo and Threepio have been lovingly dubbed by fans as “The Murder Bots.” The nickname is well-earned. These guys are extremely Metal, pun intended.
Much like Threepio is fluent in six million forms of communication, Triple Zero is fluent in six million forms of torture. This guy is so down to maim and kill that when they take on a prisoner, Vader has to be like “Chill, bro. We need this guy alive. Go take a cold oil bath.”
Similarly, much like how Artoo has a plethora of built-in tools and gizmos, BT-1 has an arsenal of onboard weaponry. At times it can stretch the reader’s ability to suspend disbelief when all those blasters and missile launchers pop out.
It’s a borderline Looney Toons amount of weaponry. Is overkill (pun intended again)? Probably. Is it awesome? Sweet Lord of the Sith, yes.
