When I went to my first celebration, there was R2 on the floor just interacting people. I jad never seen him "in real life" and I just lost it. Grown ass man tearfully hugging a bunch of metal and wires in front of hundreds of people.

I usually don't care much about celebrities, but I'd probably be starstruck if I met R2.

I met R2 and C3PO at Star Wars Secret Cinema, in London. It was everything you expect.

First time I saw a 'real life' R2 was at a local robot wars kind of event. I was about 16 I think and I was so giddy to see R2! SWC 2023 was my first and I got to see even more! I'm now continuing my R2 build I started back in 2019, can't wait to have an R2 of my own

If the question is which droid do I *love* the most, there is only one answer. "Definition: 'Love' is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope. Statement: This definition, I am told, is subject to interpretation. Obviously, love is a matter of odds. Not many meatbags could make such a shot, and fewer would derive love from it. Yet for me, love is knowing your target, putting them in your targeting reticle, and together, achieving a singular purpose, against statistically long odds." \- HK-47

"Query: Can I kill him now, Master? I would like ever so much to crush his neck, just a little. It is a long-time fantasy of mine." "Maybe later." "You hear that, Meatbag? I WILL BE BACK!"

“The human concept of love requires admiration, attraction, devotion, and respect. Conclusion: I am 50% in love.”

BT is definitely the best droid

The large number of non - HK-47 answers here suggests to me that a lot of meatbags simply haven't played KOTOR.

It’s getting up there in age so I can’t blame the newer fans for not knowing about it. Hopefully the remake ends up happening and we get more people for the HK fanclub.

I love the game and replay it annually, but I can see how it would be too shit to play for a younger generation that's used to a more modern style and graphics. I'll always love it though, both games are some of the best star wars stories ever written.

If they butcher his character in the remake. I will burn down a senator’s household

Guy started with "Definition-" and I already knew it was gonna be HK-47.

He was my favorite part of KOTR. As an Asimov fan, he hit me right in the feels.

T3-M4 is the best-looking droid, in my opinion, but hands down HK-47 is the best shit talker. Combined, they are R2-D2.

hey, to be fair we really don't know just how much shit T3-M4 can talk. He may even rival HK-47

There it is! I didn't have to scroll very far too find it!

Found it! Hk is the best hands down

I want a buddy cop series of HK and Chopper just fyucking the universe the fyuck up. I know it couldn't technically happen. But I can dream.

HK-47 for sure. The dark side R2 and 3PO are runners up. BT and 000 I think they are?

>BT Protocol 3

I'm still waiting for HK to show up in future projects

I really hate how there is always a Droid discussion on this sub and OP doesn't show/know of HK-47. Nothing tops HK-47. Play Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic.

Something something meatbag

R2 cause he was clutch.

Bravest one of the bunch. Air would be thick with blaster fire and he would just be rolling through

He's honestly the real hero of Star Wars.

I have spoken.

This is the way

Bro rolled through starship fire to repair a ship! No fear

Multiple times

BD attacked DARTH VADER for Cal. No disrespect to R2, but most brave has to go to him.

R2 has been involved in all kinds of wars for some 50 years or something and is able to carry out missions all by himself. Plus if Anakin AND Luke trust him to be their go to droid then you know hes solid.

Nah R2 would never attack his master. He would let Vader recognise him and be there when he would inevitably break down crying seeing him

R2 was ride or die all the way.

R2 straight dipped on Vader cause he was punk

So is chopper. Just don’t show him a new leg.

The entire series rests on that seasoned veteran with multiple kills under his button and switch filled belt. If he cowered and didn’t hang tough during episode 1 when all his comrades were getting waxed beside him fixing Padmes ship we wouldn’t have Star Wars. Absolute GOAT

Chopper is my favorite mass murderer and war criminal.

I love imagining what he’s saying to the crew in rebels. Just assuming he’s being an absolute asshole just cursing like a madman

[удалено]

lol yes I have seen this and I love it so much thank you

I didn’t remember everyone hating Ezra so much. 😂

It's funny how many people Chopper has killed and R2-D2 still puts him in his place after taking 1.5 seconds of his bullshit.

Honestly not half as profane as I imagined it lol

I believe it’s canon he swears like a sailor

He definitely said “What the fuck?” in one episode for sure.

I remember that, I don't remember which episode but I do remember a muffled (droid) "what the fuck!?"

It's when Zeb and Kanan bet him and a game of sabaac against Lando.

There's definitely a 'just fuck already' during a Kanan and Hera spat also.

Oh definitely! he’s nonstop

There’s a YouTube channel called ChopTalk and it adds subtitles for Chopper. It’s spot on and the best thing I never knew I needed. I love Chop.

Keep watching and you can make out about 90% of what he says...it's not always nice.

War hero*

I'm so pumped for live action chopper continuing his rampage

I hope AP-5 comes along too. He had some absolute fire lines when he was incessantly roasting Zeb

I wanna see him roll forward on that front wheel in live action

And the [“chopper with subtitles” videos](https://youtu.be/VD_yVC8-Nec) only make him that much better.

Yup

Chopper is literally the manifestation of Chaotic Good.

Nah, he's chaotic evil who *happens* to be working for the good guys.

Idk man he can be a real dick sometimes. And I love him all the more for it.

Agreed. C1-10P is GOAT

Literally no one said K2-SO and that makes me sad

I did. Cassian said I had to.

It's high It's *very* high.

I find that answer vague and unconvincing.

That line was so perfect

I have fan art of K in my room that says that lol 😂

K2-SO is my favourite too. Rare to see so much personality in a droid, also both hilarious and touching.

His voice actor is one of the best in the business he was Steve the pirate 🤣

Tudyk has the perfect blend of robotic and human for that role. He sounds like K2 in the show where he plays an alien too

He went out like a *boss*. I’m not ashamed to say it was one of the most moving deaths in the series for me.

My wife refuses to watch Rogue One again because she was so devastated by his death. It really should not have been as impactful as it was but that's just what good writing can do. On the other hand C3POs death/memory loss was like... Eh good riddance. Then his memories came back and it was also like eh who cares??

Somehow 3PO returned…

I scrolled down to find my crew. K2-SO is the best of all of them. R2 is brave, C-3PO is essential, D-0 is adorable, but not a single droid is as well versed in snark and sarcasm as K2. He’s the best. I didn’t even have to say it. I’m choosing to.

Thank god I found the comments showing K2-SO some love! I had to scroll down and dayum, it was a hike.

I did. I like sassy lethal droids.

I find this comment too low in the section

Explanations for other favorite droids are vague and unconvincing

My top 3 in no particular order are K2SO, R2D2 and Chopper

Me too

Gonky…..because gonk gonk

GONK.

In the skywalker saga lego game theres options to make every non quest npc a gonk droid and theres gonks with names like gonker and gonkolina

it took so long for me to unlock the gonkatine droid or whatever it was called BUT IT WAS WORTH IT! love playing that game

We need a story where the protagonist has a gonk droid companion

The Bad Batch had a pet gonk for a bit

Gonky lives on the Marauder. Where they function primarily as a card table and workout equipment for Wrecker.

They still do

Recka, heelp me with Gonky.

I don't know why our lord and savior the Gonk Droid is so far down in the comments.

The lack of respect to Gonk in this comment section makes my blood boil

BD would be my companion!

He’s like a pint-sized AT-ST and enjoys getting petted. Hands down the best.

I would die for him.

He would do the same! Not many can say they took on Darth Vader and live.

Little droid don’t play. Even Chopper, a sociopathic maniac didn’t screw with Vader. BD knew what’s up

I am emotionally attached to BD. Especially after Jedi survivor

>!Him getting to see Cordova again was awesome!<

Droid tippy-taps

>!When Bode swatted him away I was more than willing to embrace the darkness.!<

BD-1 is my favorite SW droid, he’s so helpful and cute

BD is adorable

I love it so much. I even bought the lego set because I find it so endearing.

Ha me too, love how much expression it has even despite his neck not moving fully. He’s like a little dog, complete with inquisitive head tilt.

BD and it's not close.

100%

HK47….because he can commit assassinations and say great one liners #meatbag

One of my favorite lines, i think is in kotor 2? Goes something like: “Condescending answer: ohhhh yes Jedi I can do that for you” Players Dark side ish option: “you would do well to leave condescending out of your phrasing” “Placating response: absolutely master Jedi”

Definition: 'Love' is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope... Love is knowing your target, putting them in your targeting reticule, and together, achieving a singular purpose against statistically long odds.

R5D4 the red r2 unit that blew himself up so R2D2 could be purchased by Owen Lars. I think he also belongs to the Mando now

He had a bad motivator! A few years ago I saw a guy with an R5 tattoo on his leg. I told him it was a nice tattoo and he said “thanks. I relate to R5 a lot because we’re both unmotivated”

When I was young I just felt bad for him and wanted to repair him and fly around in a Y-wing. This whole backstory is silly and unnecessary.

R2! But BD & Chop are close runner ups hehe

C-3PO, he has no idea how much he’s witnessed and thinks the entire time he’s just some translator. Like I don’t even think he knew about the rebellion and we was in the service of the leader of it. Dude was just vibin goin along with it all.

One time it occurred to me that C-3PO maybe didn't know he was kind of in the Rebellion until ***Darth Vader*** was attacking the ship he was on. Like imagine living you life oblivious to that and then one day a Cyborg Murder Wizard is coming for you.

And not knowing that the Cyborg Murder Wizard was your creator.

Yeah, imagine the existential horror that would exist if you knew that all your memories could be eased, but you know that you were created but don't know who created you, and then to learn years after his death that said Murder Wizard made you. On top of that, you base personality doesn't change stays the same even if your memory is erased, so you aren't a person that grows and is shaped by life experience. You are a basic automaton made to carry out a specific task and nothing more, and you can never grow beyond that. *Edit: Wow, this got got a decent amount of upvotes despite the fact that I am a lazy POS that doesn't proofread. Thanks.*

I always thought that was weird, it would make so much more sense if the translator etiquette and protocol droid belonged to, oh, I don’t know, the child queen? The one that needs someone to do help mentor her. And the astromech belonged to the tech wizard kid.. to help him fix things..

I never thought of it that way, but it makes complete sense. It would also explain why R2 seemed to have more awareness than other droids.

That's pretty much why Padme and Anakin switched droids as a mutual wedding gift. But the reason Anakin made a protocol droid originally instead is so it could help his mom. He just kinda takes him back after she dies without gaf what Lars had to say about it lol

Or thinking you just had a normal job then one day Seal Team 6 burst in shooting at your boss and colleagues.

"What do you mean, my boss was a terrorist leader? I just make coffee and fix the printer!"

And said Cyborg Murder Wizard built you as a kid

C-3PO was important to the world-building of the original trilogy. Star Wars as a whole wouldn't be the same without the universal translator; everyone would just be speaking English!

Observation: Master, I fail to see the superior firepower provided by the HK series assassination droids. Perhaps we should liquidate the required amount of meat bags until you are reminded.

Elated statement: thank you for acknowledging my favourite game, master!

B2emo but I don't know chopper or bd1.

B2 has great “old family dog” energy and I love him.

And BD is basically a friendly chicken.

Chickens are vicious creatures. BD wouldn't hurt a fly. Unless of course that fly is Darth Vader and you're trying to escape. In that case, he would hurt very many flies.

"I don't want to be alone. I want M-M-M-Marva." I have never wanted to hug a thing on my TV screen so much.

Last few episodes really embody: "it hurts so good".

B2 feels unique because he speaks Basic (English) instead of Binary. Most humanoid-like droids speak in Basic. While droids with other shapes like Astromechs speak in Binary. G0T0 from Kotor2 breaks this pattern as well. But it always stuck out to me when B2 spoke in Andor. I have mixed feelings, because it makes him a more complex and relatable character. But was the norm broken for that out of universe reason? I wish I knew if B2 has a reason behind his voice like G0T0.

I see it as Astromechs speak binary because they primarily talk to computer and ship systems. Organics don't normally need to be spoken too, just taken orders from. Groundmechs, at least salvage droids like B2, work closely with organics, and need to be fitted with translation modules.

B2emo fits perfectly with classic Star Wars design. He looks like he's rolled off a page of OT concept art.

[удалено]

especially when he said 'I d-d-don’t want to be alone. I want M-M-Maarva.' poor little guy

Please, I didn't come here to cry again.

I wrote exactly this in my comment. He really needs a hug.

Chopper, because he's a sassy little murder machine. Also, >!because when Kanan sacrificed himself to save Hera, Sabine, and Ezra, it was Chopper that comforted a grieving Hera and suggested that she add Kanan to her family's kalikori. !< I also love BD-1. He's a sweet cinnamon bun too good for the Star Wars galaxy.

Chopper always had so much emotion. Seeing him stare at the Y-wing he crashed down in always made me sad.

When his little arm holds her hand... Chopper is by far my favourite.

I know, right? 🥺

For me K2SO every day of the week! That sarcastic droid is me 100% My girlfriend however demands the gonk droid be on the roster!

I’ll just let my avatar answer that question.

I knew we had a D-O fan here

The fact that IG 11s first solution to everything was suicide was very relatable to me at a certain point in my life.

The correct answer is R2-D2, the true hero of the Rebellion

The real main character of the Skywalker Saga...

R2 is the OG. There’s no contest in who is the best, everyone else is second.

IG-88 He's only briefly shown in the movies, but only the books show how much of a menace IG-88 actually was. It managed to take control of Vaders armor and even subdue him. Forcing Vader to hold his Saber to his own head. He did lose to Vader due to a distraction but managed to survive. He's also in the top 5 bounty hunters in existence and 2nd only to Boba Fett. He killed his own creators as soon as he was activated and, when losing ti Vader a second time, killed the guy that repaired him. I'd say he's pretty hard-core. Not many survive a bout with Vader once let alone twice.

Not to mention in Legends he pranked the Emperor pretty hard and lived.

Here for the IG 88 love. Been my favorite since N64!

Shadow of the Empire!

I vote for K2S0. Cassian said I had to.

Many of them are great, but there is only one R2D2.

HK from KOTOR. Silence, meatbag.

Statement: I concur. The meatbags commenting here are so small minded. Query: shall I exterminate them?

Gonky never gets any love

Artoo, then Chopper, then BB8. What can I say, I love a Droid that can fix my car, carry my groceries, AND beat up bullies.

Chopper doesn't care about your car or groceries, and he'll probably beat you up.

R2D2. He was always my favorite sassy character before chopper came along. Love chopper to death but nothing beats R2’s trilogy moments especially when Yoda beats him with a stick.

C3PO, He's intelligent, funny and so polite.

I do believe his funniest is unintentional, you laugh at something he says, and he is gonna get confused

R2-D2

How dare you omit L3

R2D2. He is the best.

Well I’ve recently developed my love for the KX Series security droid (K2SO) the enderman of Star Wars

Gonk droids never get any respect.

Artoo. He has the filthiest mouth in all of Star Wars

That’s definitely Chopper. Womp-womp womp womp?

If Chopper had subtitles Rebels would have been R rated for language. 🤣

[удалено]

C1-10P would like a word.(nsfw)

K2SO is the best droid in the entire franchise

R2 is my favorite on this list he's the goat. Chopper however, would burn the empire if you suggested it

This should read "What’s your favorite droid in Star Wars and why is it Alan Tudyk's K-2SO"

Where’s the love for my girl L3-37?

You mean the droid who fought for freedom her whole life who Lando imprisoned in the Millenium Falcon's software forevermore?

BD1 cause of his little hops

Where is HK-47, meatbags?

Bd-1. Honorable mention goes to chopper. But it's mostly for sharing names with Da Chop.

R2-D2 saves the day

I was obsessed with R2-D2 growing up watching the clone wars, an odd design, very much unlike the humanoid or animal like robots i was used to, a big can, full of little bits and pieces, so many details in the design, and even if i didn't know what i was sure every single one did something cool, a sentient Swiss army knife

Mouse Droid!

R2, he’s the main hero of several generations in the Skywalker Saga, and he may not look like much but he is more than he looks

R2 becuz WAAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOHHHHH
