Episode III: You Pick the Droid Color
July 31, 2003

starwars.com Hyperspace brings you closer than ever before possible to the making of a Star Wars film. Next month, one lucky Hyperspace member will even win a trip to the Episode III set. But now, Hyperspace members need no longer be content with just observing the newest Star Wars epic unfold, they will determine what's in the movie.

Director George Lucas and the Episode III Droid Unit have decided to let Hyperspace members determine the look of a new droid to appear on the big screen in the summer of 2005.

While Obi-Wan Kenobi may not remember owning a droid, you'll be able to select a memorable paint scheme for his new astro-unit in Episode III. In the film, this new droid will accompany Kenobi on a mission aboard his Jedi starfighter. There are four color schemes, represented here as concept art, from which to choose.
