TT-8L gatekeeper droid

"The overcoat is a nice touch, but white pants with toumon boots? Come back when your eyespots can perceive style."

- Glambot, an obnoxious TT-8L gatekeeper at Coruscant's Club Caraveg



Once constructed by Serv-O-Droid, Inc. for wealthy citizens and entrepreneurs, the TT-8L gatekeeper droid, nicknamed the "tattletale", was made to be the perfect surveillance system.

Essentially, the droid was an electronic eye on a stalk. The "tattletale" was placed near a door and could poke its "eye" through a peep-hole in the door. It could then ask its master if it should admit a visitor or keep the visitor at the door. Many people considered it to be one of the most annoying droid models.

Jabba the Hutt used a sadistic TT-8L/Y7 to guard the gate to his palace on Tatooine. One also appeared guarding Brogar's on Socorro but appeared to be controlled by a Gotal at the door.

Variants


The deluxe TT-8L/XSS was originally the most popular variant until the arrival of the TT-8L/Y7. The Y7 could scan for weapons and was installed in the door frame itself.
