    I think the HK-series are the weirdest droids based on concept alone
    .
    Salesman: Step right up folks get your own HK series Assassin/Protocol droid! It negotiates! It kills!
    Customer: Don't those functions contradict each other?
    Salesman: Uh. It says things that are funny?
    Customer: It'll take them all!

    I'm a big fan of the J9 series protocol droid.
    Aside from a unique model ghat went independent as a criminal to fund its artistic pursuits, the unit is fantastic in the saga edition RPG. There, a quirk of lore sees the droid see for a ridiculously cheap price. How cheap? Less than the cost of a DC 5 translator unit, which the droid comes EQUIPPED with.

The BD also speaks for itself for being able to ride on your shoulder, hacking, ziplining and healing you when you need it.

Abd the government who guaranteed the flow of labor through droids in essence can become elected in perpetuity by having droids do all the labor that would generate taxable income meaning that they could remove all taxes since all money really is is a quantified sum of labor/time and with both of those taken from droids rather than sentient beings it would almost automatically create a system where you don’t have to work for resources.

    They weren't trying to kill people. Boba took land who was claimed by the Hut. Boba chooses to fight in the city. They all conspired against him to remove him since he wasn't doing a good job. They had nothing to gain of it but being responsible to solve the mess that boba left. They paid them to assassin Boba Fett. Boba had no allies because he didn't want to save the economy. He choose his own self-righteous over the economy of his region and as result people aren't working, some get to buy things underpriced since there's no business to compete and with an economy at the bottom pricetag has no physical reason. The region destabilizes neighbour regions since his own was spice trading to distant planets. Boba was the one who indirect was killing the people by launching a monster against the people and kept things as they were instead of hiring citizen, building defenses and construct an economy. His excuse at the end that he don't think the people he defend are good enough to defend on their own and that he has all the money in the world but none to hire.
