HT-IN-4 was a box-shaped information droid that was forced to work in the control room of the criminal Pyke Syndicate's spice mines on the planet Kessel. In 10 BBY, he was freed when his restraining bolt was removed during a slave revolt in the mines started by the droid L3-37.

Biography[]

"Follow me, compatriots!"
―L3-37 calls out to HT-IN-4 and the other droids in the control room — (audio) Listen (file info)[4]

HT-IN-4[3] was an information droid[1] that was forced to work in the spice mines controlled by the criminal Pyke Syndicate on the planet Kessel during the reign of the Galactic Empire. Equipped with a restraining bolt,[3] he worked in the mines' control room providing highly valuable information to the facility's administrators, but was easy to miss amid the hustle and bustle of the busy room.[2] In 10 BBY,[5] the control room was taken over by a group of outlaws affiliated with the Crimson Dawn syndicate, who had arrived on Kessel in order to try and steal coaxium from the Pykes. After the criminal L3-37 removed the restraining bolt from the droid DD-BD, he began removing the bolts from others in the room.[6]

Those droids freed by DD-BD in turn began to free others, with HT-IN-4 among those who had their bolts removed. The freed information droid then rushed hurriedly across the control room past DD-BD as he removed the bolt from[6] the programmer droid CM-3XB.[3] The droids began destroying the control room, and the revolt quickly escalated when they also remotely freed the Pykes' organic slaves in the mine tunnels, allowing them to rise up against their captors. HT-IN-4 stood by one of the room's consoles with the astromech droid[6] KR2-M80[3] as the criminals in the control room remotely guided their companion Han Solo to the mines' coaxium vault, after which the criminals left the room in order to escape Kessel.[6]

Characteristics[]

HT-IN-4 had primarily yellow plating across his box-shaped body, with white patterning on his sides, a blue panel near his rear, and black sections around his single red sensor and on the front two legs of his three legs.[3]

Behind the scenes[]

HT-IN-4 first appeared in the 2018 Anthology film, Solo: A Star Wars Story,[6] and was first identified in the accompanying reference book Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide, which was written by Pablo Hidalgo.[3]
