    Sure. Edit: the geonosians were genocided after the clone wars when they were used to start construction on the Death Star and genocided to hide it by the empire.

        I will never understand why the empire didn’t use captured b1 units as droid labor.

        Yes, they’re totally incompetent. But it’s either incompetence or intentional sabotage.

          Its because the best robot they could do in the 1980s was a guy in a gold suit or a wheelie bin.

            TPM was the 90’s, they started production in 1997, first in theaters in 99.

            and for the record, I was on my third FDM printer. or maybe my second. (depends if you count my dad’s inkjet that I strapped my mom’s hot glue gun to. Just for the record, I did ask if I could have the printer.))

              The empire was only in the original trilogy, so for “the empire to use captured B1 battledroids” they would have needed to be on screen in the eighties.

        I get that, I was just adding context for people who haven’t seen Rebels. (if anyone hasn’t seen rebels… you should.)
