The EG-series power droid, also known as the EG power droid, was a model of power droid manufactured by Veril Line Systems. Like the very similar GNK-series power droid, it emitted low honking sounds, which earned it the nickname of "gonk droid."[1] When C-3PO and R2-D2 were captured by Jawas on Tatooine, an EG-6 power droid was present in the sandcrawler they were stored in. The Lars family owned an EG-6 power droid.[2] The droid WG-22 was a modified EG-series droid.[3]
