    The Scorpenek Annihilator Droid the colicoid droid that they hoped to keep a secret, letting the T4 and droideka fight for the CIS, but keeping the Scorpenek for their homeworld Colla IV. See how the droid from the Book of Boba Fett finale works, how the Pyke Syndicate came to use it, and how Emperor Palpatine adapted them for his Reborn Empire. And the history goes back to the Old Republic with the Sith War Droid.

    The power source being in the "head" of the Scorpenek actually makes a lot of sense.
    The biggest threat to it would be mines, since mines are burried and would be inside of the shield by the time they're triggered. So putting the power sources and processors in the top and making the bottom more heavily armored against physical attacks would be the Scorpenek's only real means of defense against mines.

  • @roger632

    What I want to see is the New Republic repurposing old Droidekas, fixing them up and upgrading them, and then painting the parts that used to be copper in a metallic navy blue color with some touches of light blue here or there, and the photoreceptors could beam yellow instead of red, and then of course with the yellow New Republic insignia on their back shell. I've seen this color scheme on New Republic T-85 X-Wings, so the New Republic does display such colors. And I just wanna see Droidekas in live action again lol.

  • @sladesledgesheep2490
    @sladesledgesheep2490 2 года назад +21

    I reckon the reason for the scorponeks not being as effective in the Book of Boba Fett was due to either the pykes turning down the blaster intensity to prevent total annihilation (geddit) of Mos Espa or the fact that they weren’t functioning 100% due to their age or problems moving them between planets due to new republic/empire remnant checks (ie having to deconstruct/reconstruct them so they arent noticed).

  • @CobraTrouser
    @CobraTrouser 2 года назад +113

    An old Sith war droid being in the Aphra comic is pretty insane because that means those units are officially canon, whether or not the events of that era are though remains to be seen. Still we also have a KOTOR remake coming and an amazing new cinematic for SWTOR so I'm hoping the future of the Old Republic is a bright one.

      Hopefully we see them upgraded so they can shoot from further away than like 20 feet and actualy be able to hit something instead of missing litteraly every time.
      Maybe we could also see them move faster than a mobility scooter with dying batteries and we could get their weapons upgraded so that they dont get stopped dead by a half foot thick mud wall.

    I can see General Grievous using the Socrpenek annihilator droid as a defender of a fortress, heavy fire support for troops and as a deadly surprised against Republic ships like example: Anakin using his AT-TEs by putting them on astroids to surprise Grievous. Grievous can literally pull that trick on the Republic ships and can also have them stationed on the outside of starships and space stations for extra protection and firepower

    I felt like these droids design is stupid, like, they didn't seem to be able to aim below and directly infront of them , so it seemed quite easy to just... stand infront and they can't hit you lmao
