Their eyes always reminds me of coffee bean logos on bags
Welp. Now I can't unsee it. I'll be telling the barista that my name is Roger from now on.

CIS should have used the GONK droid for an army
Palpatine didn't want them to win!
@@geetslys The GONK armor plating could not only rival, but completely destroy Beskar and the Zillo beast’s scales upon contact. Legend has it that GONK armor once reflected a lightsaber back into the user and that GONK droids are the force itself.
You could take gonk droids and turn them into mini nukes, then carpet bomb the crap out of them
@@facuokinggton7509 uh, hey grievous. I hope you don't mind but I've been making some youtube videos on my breaks.
@@dihydrogenmonoxidecontainm6064 lol all we need is a B2 with a bad attitude and this would be hilarious.
B1s are always cool to see when there are just hundreds
They are kind of cute looking too.
They would be scarier if they kept the droid voice of the phantom menace
@@facuokinggton7509 For sure. And if they'd kept the same attitude, as well. Like, they're cheap disposable terminators who can sometimes provide humorous moments due to faults in their programming, but their programming can't be flawed to the point that they're talkative idiots.
@@darthknightwingphoenix2081 yeah I honestly feel like the B1’s were out of place. Had it been switched over to the more dumb grunting B2s (who by the way, I’m pretty sure only speak in one episode) they could’ve been a bit more threatening because their either complete evil or their stupid idiots. Cant have both.
@@darthknightwingphoenix2081 I felt the same about the same way they depicted the B2s in ROTS too. Really took away from the intimidation factor setup on AOTC
Shoutout to OOM-9. More competent than any "tactical" droid.
You have the Roger Roger model, the traitor model, the Genocide model, The beyond a complete idiot model, and the Overqualified model
Roger roger.
@@geetslys I read that in the clone imitation voice.

Shout out to that OOM-9 commander that almost single handedly conquered Naboo back in SW Battlegrounds
Since battle droids often acted as garrisons for Separatist worlds, I like to think that service models like the pilot and firefighter droid would be found in the civilian sectors, performing jobs that would've been hazardous to organic beings. (Plus it would match the PR the Confederacy spread in saying how they used droid armies to avoid risking the lives of their citizens in combat)
The B1 makes a perfect servant class. Can do just about anything passably, and they are expendable.
The grapple droids proved ineffective
No weapon is powerful enough to pierce plot armor
Props to the CIS for wasting time and money on not only breaking pods but the intragalactic rules of war
Star Wars is just a compilation of the Geneva convention being broken.

How about a video of Battledroids with unique personalities like R0-GR and Mister Bones?
Didn't he already do that?
@@thedarkzone4271 he did one on Mr. Bones i think
But all battle droids have unique personalities! 😂😊😎
Yes bt mr bones didn't get his unique personally till after the clone wars so I'd rather have one dealing with droids during the clone wars
Despite what R0-GR said, he wasn't the only one of us left. For instance, Me.
You know I really like the fact that there is so many different variations B1 battle droids, instead of a bunch of specialty models.
Because it really makes sense from a manufacturing standpoint, it's a lot easier to retool a factory to make a specialized version of a already-established template, Instead of switching the factory over to a completely new template.
And that just really fits in with the quantity over quality CIS way of doing things.
Not just the B2 variants, but the Droideka variants too.
I just imagined that in Anakin voice...
Hmm yea! That sounds cool!
Where are those Droidekas?
Intentional or no, the B1-A air battle droid seems to be a counter for clone commandos.
I would love to have a B1 as a droid companion
I want a B2 or Dwarf Spider Droid. Probably a Dwarf Spider Droid because its like having a big mechanical dog/mole with a small laser howitzer lol. Plus those Big Red eyes look adorable staring at you like a dog to probably lol.
Magnaguards for me please.
Bx Commandos for me
So quirky and wacky! Like a clumsy and talking dog!
I'm still waiting on the disclaimer "this video is not sponsored by bactoid combat automata in any way" or such.
B1-A air battle droid
from Star Wars Revenge of the Sith game was my favorite one. looked really cool . that game had a lot of cool unique designs that never left the game like Clone Assassins with vibro swords and Jedi Knight Serra Keto
So happy that the B1 get more attention.
B1-A: **Exists**
Every Clone: "THEY FLY NOW?!"
"They fly now!"
Me going into the video: he is going to not mention any of the Star wars Galactic Battleground Droids
4:07: Betel Droids
Me: oh, still forgot the, AA B1
That game is wonky
actually, he mentioned the AA ones as a subgroup of Heavy Droids, which is what Wookiepedia treats them as as well iirc (as both use missiles)
IMO the ones which did their intended job the best, are the Pilot droids - for example, remember the ship which Anakin "cut" in half? well before he did that it was already damaged pretty badly, but it managed to stay in air pretty well due to the pilot droids (that is untill Anakin and Obi-Wan killed all of them).
they honestly never failed at their job and did everything they were supposed to perfectly
Ya they were the most competent and underrated model and never got replaced in all three movies, so was obviously really good at what they did
My favorite droids in Star Wars are the B1's - Purely because for being a bunch of functional idiot death bots- They seem like if they'd have a choice in the matter they would really just be more home doing other things than fighting in the Clone Wars. Plus when they develop their own unique personalities (usually after sufficient damage being done to their circuits) they have the capacity to at times be savagely sassy, condescending, and sarcastic towards just about anyone: And I think that's a grand quality to have in a droid that's just sick and tired of their job that involved marching out to shoot people, get blown up, and then end up being rebuilt to be sent right back out there again.
naa, there is alot of dialogue where they talk about enjoying fighting clones and fighting in general, its only jedi they dislike fighting.
@@matthiuskoenig3378 Interesting. Perhaps that means they are just sore losers then and are all for easy wins?
Yes do an episode on all the B2 variants. That would be awesome
If there was no sith intervention in the clone wars the separatists would have probably won because of the sheer number of droids.
@Joseph Douek yeah and any uprisings/rebellions would have been crushed
Well if there were no siths then the war wouldn't have happened. And if order 66 wouldn't have happened then the republic would have won since during ROTS Grievous died and we all know if he's out of the picture then the republic would have the upper hand
Roger Roger
If there was no sith intervention the separatist movement wouldn't have been dominated by greedy opportunists and warmongers in the first place
fun fact: there were at least 10,000 droids for every clone
I've always been a fan of the piolet Droids, they're my favorite color blue, if my icon didn't make it obvious. Also helps they got to help R2 and play a decent role in the Citadel Arc, which I also enjoy greatly.
Also, nice effect at the beginning to transition the box color from blue, to red, and then to yellow, when talking about the most well know varients.
The Confederacy of Independent Systems probably had hundreds of thousands of different versions of the B1 Battle Droid. There is probably be no way to probably cover even half of the different battle droids much less the variety of said battle droids.
I don't know about hundreds of thousands, chief. But many that aren't listed here.
Such as
OOM-052:fix a bug that makes them just stand in place in the middle of a battle
OOM-053:they now do not shoot inanimate objects that looks like the enemy
OOM-054:added a piece of metal near the joints to stop sand from going in
And so on and on and on
And each diffrent model just adds a slight diffrence.
This video was very helpful for my not-so nerdy friend! Thanks! (also I learned a thing or 2)
Awesome! Hopefully we exposed them to Star Wars!
@@geetslys it’s like an addiction but a good one
Love the clip of the droid getting crushed by boxes and being pulled out lol
They seem pretty weak for lifting or physical rolls like fire fighting like in the molevolence (sorry for my spelling).
I remember reading in the Official Star Wars Fact File (that must have been around the time AOTC was released) that only the OOM series had vocabulators, which meant that regular B1 droids weren't able to talk. This applied to the time of the Invasion of Naboo. I don't know whether this was later retconned or not, but I like this concept. I really don't like the way B1 droids were portrayed later in ROTS and especially in TCW. In EP1, B1 droids were cold and intimidating and now they're a joke.
No more a joke than storm troopers, or really anyone who's a "bad guy" in Star Wars. Canonically competent, buffoons on-screen.
@@Espartanica But honestly, stormtroopers only started to become a joke since Return of the Jedi, when they were beaten by a bunch of teddy bears. In ANH especially, stormtroopers are a serious threat and in TESB, the same logic of "they have orders to miss" can be applied as in ANH.
The b1 battle droid is probably one of the most popular star wars enemy soldier next to the classic storm trooper. One thing How ever that separates them from storm troopers however is that they can actually HIT there targets.
Never thought I'd see one of your vids mention Galactic Battlegrounds. Ah the nostalgia...
So much fun. Empire at War is also AMAZING, especially with the FoC expansion!
I actually believe Rocket Battle Droids had more potential. Just imagine thinking you’re winning the battle just to see a bunch of gunships dropping this guys like rain on the battlefield.
Space is a vastly different environment than atmosphere. A lot of spacefaring ships weren't designed for landing because of this
Hasbro needs to make a Black Series figure of the firefighter droid, I love their design

This man stole my comment from an earlier video lol
@@EdaugEthanbYT tough
@@overlordmogg9103 I don’t care that he took it. I find it humorous
I've always imagined that there was a unique B1 that didn't ever have a memory wipe and developed a unique high level intelligence. Similar to R2-D2. Perhaps it went on to work with the Rebels and the New Republic.
I would like a story like that.
Issues were processing units in them so most of them could not go past a certain point
I would greatly appreciate a B2 video
What about the OOM-69 Pleasure Droid?
Not many were made because of the expense parts used in the making
I forgot about that scene with the rocket battle droids going around and cracking open escape pods like piñatas. That scene and the one in the Umbara episodes where the clones are going around and casually joking while executing wounded enemy soldiers both rank pretty high on my, "Holy shit, I can't believe that there are corporate marketing departments that green-lit their breakfast cereal and action figure advertisements to be run with this show" list.
I do like these boys, glad you covered them
The Droid Army had limitless Potential and an overwhelming about of versatility! I really wanted to see the Droid Army keep making improvements and keep appearing in more Star Wars movies and series.
I honestly would love another open world Star Wars game but set in the clone wars era it would be so cool
Yes. Please do the B-2 "Super Battle Droid" next.
The OG Battlefront 2 Super Battle Droid one-shotting a a clone trooper at point-blank with the tri-shot; will always be what I think of.
The good old days..
Thanks for filling out the blanks about us commander models. A little known fact about us is that we love playing battlefront 2004.
Mr. Bones was a "one of a kind" variant, roger roger!
I WANTED AN EPIC VIDEO LIKE THIS THANK YOU!!!!
NO PROBLEM!!!!!!!!
So happy to see references to Star Wars: Battlegrounds. That game was my introduction to the RTS genre, but few people seem aware of it.
@Geetsly's Awesome video my friend, it's good to learn about the B1 Battle Droids their different models. And yes I'd would love to see the different B2 Super Battle Droids models too. Maybe a little bit of the IG-series Assassin Droids including IG-100 Magnaguards?
treating Galactic Battlegrounds as canon is always very funny
I also forgot but there were B1 models missed such as the ones that operated the mortars from galactic battlegrounds and the electro staff wielding ones.
And aquatic ones.
More on ALL the different Droids PLEASE !
the b1 droids are hands down one of the best droids as they have so much potential if given the right upgrades and made a bit better.
I’d really like to hear about the B-2 variants!!!
B1 roger droids
all I can think of while watching this is some form of a battle strategy game where you chose troops and try to win the war with tactics also yes i would love to see a B2 version of this
Here is a idea for a new movie : A droid and his beetle
B2 Droid next yes please!
I would love to see the different B2 variants
I like how some of the images are sourced from BF2
Digging those B1-a battle droids. Very cool.
Now I need to know this, what’s the difference between OOM and B1 droids
They had more independence and were a bit smarter to help fulfill their roles
Would love one on the B2s!
very informational and worth the like
Good one dude

@@erwinsmith482 like I said *"JK"*
Loved seeing some screen grabs from SW: Galactic Battlegrounds!
I don't think the pilots onboard the Malevolence were actual OOM Pilot Droids, more likely regular B1 units hastily refited for pilot duties.
i would love seeing vids on the variations of the b2 battle droids also the variations of droidikas though there are some variations of it that i have a hard time loping in with those "rolling death balls" as asoka so beautifully put i speak of the oppressor droids and some of the old republic era ones that to me look very similar to droidikas i also would love to see a comprehension break down of all the droid models and model variants used by the cis during the war over all wether one vid or multiple i just love learning about this stuff
ahhh yes my droid ARMY
Yes please do the B2 units
Wow idk about the B-1 A ever mentioned. I always thought a B-1 and B-2 would make a pretty neat mix of they were put together. The jetpack was also a nice touch. I could picture it being useful for boarding enemy ship similar to the B-2 rocket Droid.
Clankas
B1 battle droid: "Roger roger"
Grenadier battle droid: "their armor. destroy them grenade."
And the B1 superbattle droid :( they never get the love they deserve
What are those? I only know about B2s
@@BlueJay-rv2rd Sorry I meant the BX commandos, I got the name wrong because in a mod for empire at war they where name like that 😓
@@ShadowBills408 Gotcha
The ig-97 droids resemble the b1's but they were made by a different company.
The only words in every word battle droid to learn Roger Roger
I like imagine enough of em slipped through cracks after the war that weren’t shut down for one reason or another that they ended up colonizing some far flung world.
No tactical droids, maybe few supers and vultures but just fields of happy frolicking B1’s. Far as eye can see, off into distance, over the hills and far away, carried on the wind “rogerogerogerrogerogerogerogerogerogeroger”
Where’s our B2 battle droid list? Love to see it!
Phantom menace battle droid voices are the best of any movie or show
It’s always nice to hear an Australian accent on RUclips
Even tho they're all different, I bet they still have that signature "uh oh" they do when in danger.
Thank you
Battle droids normally: can barely turn around, Star Wars battlefront droids: doing cartwheels
you forgot a variant: R0-GR, the Freemaker Droid
That’s not canon that takes place in Lego star wars
I kinda funny how the separatists are more organized than the republic itself, they probably have the most organized army in star wars
Maybe even more than the empire, if they weren't made to literally loose they could put a big fight
Me watching B1 vids: pfff those are just the same looking thing painted different
Me watching a clone vid: now that's what I'm looking for
I'd like to think a genius child rebuilt a bunch of B1s and had adventures in the Imperial era.
The OOM command variants could probably be reprogrammed to be decent office assistants later on, for places where protocol droids are rare. My fan character, Xelarra, Empress of the Empire of the Hand, has a put-upon B-1 named "4T-2" who is programmed to be her research assistant.
Let's be honest, if Disney can recycle Stormtroopers, I wholeheartedly, REALLY want to see a faction who brings back B1s, B2s and Droidekas! And unlike Stormtroopers, _there's actually a reason for them to be the same!_
So is there a lore reason the B1s in Republic commando looked differently or was that simply artistic license?
0 dislikes! Cool video, keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
I just get sad when I see B1s getting destroyed left and right without a thought, they were so cute and an actual good Idea tô mininize citizens casualties
"Strategic" thoughts
Love the wacky legends stuff
I think the Separatist battle droids would’ve been more intimidating if they looked more human
Ok so c3po
@@danthiel8623 smarter than that
I mean they were designed by aliens so they generally were designed to look like their respective makers so they sorta did look "human" from a certain point of view
disagree, humans are one of the least threatening thing out there, espeically if portrayed as dumbly as the droids are portrayed in the 2007 clone wars.
I would argue an inhumane droid is more threatening (assuming the same behaviour, ie serious and brutal), as there is less humanness that can be attributed to it.
the meta (ie behind the scenes) of the B1 was designed to look like an alien skeleton, so a horde of them looks like a skeletal horde from grim fantasy. however as they decided to turn them from somewhat serious and quite in episode 1/2 to more comic and chatty in other media this lost any effect it might of had. in universe they are based off the geonocean wingless drones (slave class)
i remember star wars battle front II (05) i would play against my friend on the clone wars. every time he would rush me as obi 1 or some jedi i would blow him up as a assult droid with a mine (till he started throwing his light saber or pushing me off a cliff)
There are many more types of B1 than I thought.
There's also the variant of geonosis, seen in both first and second battle of geonosis and the abafar model
The b1-a is that one awkward middle evolution of pokemon
You should do every beat to and clone variant next
