A golden droideka owned by Zonus Corporation was at one point employed by businessman Jin-Sim Canbelon. The large droideka variant could be directly controlled by a human pilot. Canbelon used the droideka in his duel against the bounty hunter Sevn.[1]
Behind the scenes
- "I thought of it as an extension of his character. My idea was that he probably had this made to order. I thought of how he would have ordered it: ‘If I'm piloting it, it should be big! I want it gold and chrome and shiny!' We based the design off the result of that concept."
- ―Junichi Yamamoto
The droideka first appeared in "The Bounty Hunters", a non-canon short film that is part of the third volume of the Star Wars: Visions series. The animated short, produced by WIT Studio, released on Disney+ on October 29, 2025.[1]
