87-RM Scout Collector

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

87-RM Scout Collectors were droids deployed by an unknown extinct population hundreds of years before the Galactic Civil War to Orellon II. Their base of operation was a fully automated starship.

[edit] Characteristics

Collector droids looked like floating dumpsters. They were two meters tall and were equipped with repulsorlift floaters, two grabbing claws, shields and a flash-freeze unit. Their task was to collect stunned organic lifeforms located by scout droids and bring them back to the base ship.

[edit] History

There were four of them roaming the Orellan jungles. The local Kentra thought they were demons, and when a group of Rebels landed on Orellon II, the Kentra King Jerius send them to stop the demon threat.

The design was reused for the 87-RM Scout Collectors, repulsorlift-enabled droids resembling three-meter-tall flying garbage bins, produced by Serv-O-Droid, Inc. and later SoroSuub. They were equipped with searchlights and a pair of padded arms. They were used to retrieve biological specimens which then were placed inside a central storage cavity and flash-frozen.

It was said that a malfunctioning Collector once killed 300 colonists on the planet Corva Yag. But many felt that the colonists had stumbled upon a secret Imperial laboratory and were "silenced."
