Cause he was went NUCLEAR

Some of the metal gears in his old arm were rusting. He's technically colorblind, so he just chose any old arm to replace it.

Its literally to sell more toys. You can settle with your old C3P0 but you wont have the new, up to date one unless you buy it with the red arm.
>>
>>64228665
But he calls attention to it being red in the movie. How does he know?
>>
he lost his old arm fisting leia.
>>
>>64228770
Just a reprogrammed protocol droid set to build up the resistance while the real C3-PO simultaneously builds up the First Order
>>
Why is he so unshiny, it looks like someone sanded him all over very evenly

I mean I would understand if he was worn or tarnished but it looks like someone took off all his skin and replaced it with a less shiny skin
>>
But this Malibu Stacy has a new hat.

In quick succession TFA has two characters setting up stories that aren't fleshed out within the movie. First Maz Kanata with her "story for another time" on Anakin's lightsaber. Next C-3PO about his red arm.

Its blatant cross promotion to get you wondering to buy the material that explains these mysteries. C-3PO's arm mystery story is being published now. The Anakin lightsaber story will happen eventually. Buy today!

Did he play it?

>>64229022
I just got a model kit of him, so the dull gold will make him a fuckton easier to paint. I ain't complaining!

It's the same reason why Luke and Anakin lost their hands. It's all in the pottery.

>>64229123
To be fair, Maz's lines had been mostly cut because the nigress couldn't VA for shit

>C-3PO's arm mystery story is being published now.

The C-3PO special from Marvel comics that explains the red arm was scheduled to be released on 12/23/15 (perfect timing, right?) but has been delayed until 2/24/16.

No idea why they're putting the comic out 2 months after the movie.
>>
>>64228520

It's probably just there to demonstrate the C3P0 hasn't been static this whole time, he's still been having adventures with Leia. Sort of like how "future" versions of established characters will often have unexplained scars to demonstrate that they've been fighting.

They're about to release a comic book that explains what happened to 3PO's arm.

In the meantime, ask that to kanji klub.

Metal...gears?

>>64228552
This doesn't help him sell

JJ thinks he can improve everything

He was deep fisting Leia

>>64228520
Because it made for a good joke.
>>
>>64232342
We had that joke earlier, but thanks anyway.
>>
>>64232362
and what is this joke specifically? drawing attention to an arm? hilarious!
>>
>>64231786
Who was the Phantom Menace supposed to be anyway?
>>
why is his arm gold again in the last part of the movie where they're all waving goodbye to the millennium falcon
>>
His original arm snapped off in Leia's shit-pipe
>>
>>64232430
>you might not have recognized me because of the red arm
It's funny, because he is an iconic and instantly recognizable character to us DESPITE the red arm.
>>
He had the best reintro in TFA.

The genius of this is that Disney doesn't even have to design new toys. They just simply find all the old molds and paint the arm red. Disney has completely streamlined the cash-grab process

Yes it does. Fans have got to have the new updated version of C3PO in their collections.
