>No C-3P0, I am your father

how did you react when it was revealed that Darth Vader built C-3P0?
>>
>>63001979
Even as a kid I felt it was wrong. One of the first things you see in the movie is a protocol droid for fuck's sake
>>
>>63001979
pretty bad fanservice. But there was way worse shit in the prequels that raped the lore
>>
but who the fuck made R2D2

he's like the most important character and we don't know anything about him
>>
>>63002239
this will almost certainly be tackled in a non-saga SW movie to come.
>>
>>63002239
I assume he was built on Naboo somewhere.
>>
>>63002239
BIG
>>
>>63002330
... what?
>>
>>63001979
That C-3PO was in the movie never bothered me, but what did bother me was how a robot built out of junk by a kid somehow looked the same as the high quality (presumably factory build) droid at the start of the movie
>>
>>63002763
Ah but you see, Anakin is the best star pilot in the galaxy! And he was a good friend.
>>
>>63002058

He just got the right parts and built a protocol droid with spare junk, like people who build custom electronics with junk and shit. Protocol droids seems to be the crappiest models around, like "build a radio in 10 steps" electronic lessons from a few decades ago. It's not that hard to find such parts in a planet filled with junkyards such as Watto's, where Anakin could perfectly steal from.

Also, Watto shop is full of old droids, there's Jawas recycling droids/selling them in EP IV, you have enough context in the planet for that to make sense.

>>63001979
Those are above boards part. C3PO was massed produced. right?
>>
Does 3PO get left on tattooine?
>Anakin was a good friend
>>
>>63001979
i was twelve and absolutely shocked at how retarded an idea it was
>>
>>63004808
>C3PO
of courshe
just examine the name
it's a designation more than a name
i think this might have actually just been a classic case of cool clock ahmed
>>
>>63001979
That's..improbable.

Cool droid, Anakin.
>>
>>63002763
Im assuming the frame wasnt made by him. He probably found a c3 protocol that wasnt working with no plates and made it work by wiring it himself and piecing it together.
>>
>>63004952
Fuck, I was just about to post something similar.
>>
>>63001979
I don't understand what the point of it was. It had nothing to do with the story, so why include it.
>>
>>63002239
>Who
Isn't he just one of many mass produced R2 units that just kicked more ass than the rest?

i like to think R2D2 is at least 3 thousand years old and from the time of the Old Republic

I actually thought that idea behind this is to show us that Anakin is mechanical genius and he will construct his armor by himself
>>
>>63005269
old republic is shit tier cannon. kotor was the only good stuff from it.
even lucas could have done a better job than swtor.
>>
>>63002763
But he didn't. He didn't look like that until episode 2.
>>
>>63005190
To make a joke "Be carefull who you mess with Greedo. You will come to regret it."

It reminds me joke from The Twelve Tasks of Asterix when Caesar says "Be carefull with that knife Brute or you will hurt someone" but of course not that clever

>>63002239
Sheev
>>
>>63005165
he is. unlike the others he does not have some hidden backstory and it does not stand out unless you think about it (like how the emperor did not have a first name for 30 years)
>>
>>63002239
Before prequels I thought that Obi-Wan made R2D2, that R2D2 wasn't his droid but his son
>>
>>63002239
Another droid in a factory.

this, sheev was behind everything thats ever happened in star wars

Sheev is from Naboo

Sheev built R2, calling it now
>>
>>63002239
R2-D2 is a Sith.

>tfw when he rolls up next to Kylo and beep beep woo boops

>>63005210
I honestly hate all this vader feeling bad about shit in these comics. He was killing children and helping an actual cartoon monster oppress a whole galaxy. All this bullshit undercuts his transformation at the end.
>>
>>63005210
How the fuck does he even know it's the one he built?

Yeah I'm still mad that after all the years over the bullshit force lighting death.

>supposedly a genius mechanical/electrical engineer
>knows full well that his only weakness is force lighting or any other type of of electrical shock
>doesn't implement some kind of surge protect in his suite

They could jut give shev a light saber and vader getting his suite damaged in that way.
>>
>>63005494
FUCK

>>63001979
Come on you guys
You can't be that retarded

I think it was obvious that little Annie didn't build C-3PO from scratch but repaired him from junk and spare parts. Kids lie all the time so he was lying when he said "I built him"

But I agree it's bad fan service. I would prefer if R2D2 and C3PO didn't appear in PT. It feels so forced

That's why also TFA will be shit because it will be filled to the brim with fan service and reddit memes for the TBBT crowd

I assumed they belonged to Princess Leia.
