WED Treadwell repair droid/Legends



The WED Treadwell was a series of repair droids produced by Cybot Galactica, and found across the galaxy, particuarly on Outer Rim worlds such as Tatooine.

The WED Treadwell was basically a six-armed automaton propelled by a treaded base. The droid's photoreceptors were mounted on a long, thin telescoping stalk, from which prodruded various tool-tipped appendages. The standard WED droid had sockets to support up to six manipulators, though variants carried eight or more. These limbs were easy to install and replace, and Cybot Galactica actively encouraged consumers to purchase a variety of appendages for their Treadwells.

Despite this versatility, the WED Treadwell was known to be fragile, and the repair droid required much maintenance itself.
