IG-RM bodyguard and enforcer droid

"These are IG-RM droids. Mostly used as thugs and enforcers by crime lords. They're supposed to be creepy."

- Princess Leia Organa

The IG-RM bodyguard and enforcer droid, more commonly known as the IG-RM thug droid and sometimes known as the IG-RM war droid or IG-RM assassin droid, was a security droid model manufactured by Holowan Laboratories. They were commonly used as enforcers, and as such proved popular with gangsters. Cikatro Vizago, a crime lord on Lothal during the reign of the Galactic Empire, employed IG-RM thug droids to conduct his criminal operations.

History
Following Order 66, Kalleran smuggler Janus Kasmir and his friend, former Jedi Padawan, Caleb Dume, stole several of these from a warehouse in Plateau City on Kaller. Kasmir then used one to break Dume out of his cell.

Lothal smuggler and Broken Horn Syndicate crime lord, Cikatro Vizago, had several of these droids under his command to enforce his rule.

Behind the scenes
The design of the IG-RM thug droid was developed from an early piece of concept art developed for IG-88.
