TK-486

"Looks like TK-486 is in trouble&hellip;"

- One of TK-486's squadmates

TK-486 was the designation of a sandtrooper of the Galactic Empire. In the year 0 BBY, TK-486 was stationed in Mos Eisley on the desert planet of Tatooine, and the soldier was once cornered by a trio of Jawas outside of Chalmun's Cantina. When one Jawa reached for the strap of TK-486's T-21 light repeating blaster, the stormtrooper demanded them to stop, catching the attention of one of TK-486's squadmates.

As a sandtrooper of the Stormtrooper Corps, TK-486 wore a backpack, an orange pauldron, and augmented stormtrooper armor.

Behind the scenes
TK-486 first appeared in Star Wars Bounty Hunt: Lift the Flap, a young readers activity book written by Katrina Pallant, illustrated by Robert Ball, and published by Egmont UK Ltd on April 7, 2016.
