EG-01[3] was a GNK-series power droid[2] manufactured by Industrial Automaton[1] with green plating. During the occupation of the planet Batuu by the First Order[2] in 34 ABY,[4] the power droid was displayed alongside several other droids on a plinth behind railings located outside of the Droid Depot in Black Spire Outpost on Batuu.[2]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
EG-01 first appeared as a prop within the themed land Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge,[2] which opened to guests at Disneyland Park and Disney's Hollywood Studios Park in 2019.[5]

Notes and references[edit | edit source]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 Star Wars Character Encyclopedia: Updated and Expanded establishes that all GNK-series power droids are manufactured by Industrial Automaton. Star Wars: The Visual Encyclopedia states that power droids are second class droids. As Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge establishes that EG-01 is a GNK-series power droid, it must share these characteristics.

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge – Droid Depot
- ↑ Droid Depot has official backstory elements that, while not directly published for the public, are officially canon details that can be obtained verbally from cast members working in the store.
- ↑ The Star Wars Book dates the Battle of Batuu, which is depicted in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge via the attraction Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, to 34 years after Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the events of A New Hope to 0 BBY, therefore the events of Galaxy's Edge, including EG-01's appearance, must take place in 34 ABY.
