The Otoga-222 maintenance droid was a model of maintenance droid used to repair podracers[1]
History[]
Otoga-222 maintenance droids could be found throughout the galaxy, acting as repair technicians.[3] An Otoga unit came into the Skywalker home and warned Anakin Skywalker and his mother Shmi Skywalker Lars of the work Watto wanted them to do while he was gone, needing young Skywalker to go to Mos Eisley spaceport to pick up a shipment. The unit reminded them of the transmitter chip inside their bodies that would blow up if they tried to run.[4] Podracer pilot Ben Quadinaros owned an Otoga-222 droid and made use of it during the Boonta Eve Classic of 32 BBY. An Otoga-222 was also for sale in Watto's junkshop in Mos Espa in 22 BBY.[5] One of the screens in the Outlander Club, showed a Nuna-ball League game where a team of Otoga-222 droids were competing against a team of RIC-series general labor droids.[6]
By the Cold War, several blue-plated Otogas were seen on the space station known as the Colossus worked as labor droids; loading crates to the cargo ships or doing maintenance.[2] Several black-plated Otogas worked as service droids in the Aces' Lounge, serving drinks to the Ace Squadron.[7]
Behind the scenes[]
The Otoga-222 maintenance droid first appeared without identification in the 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace.[5]
