Esstee-Ninety-Three

Esstee-Ninety-Three was a PJ unit droid who worked at the shipyard of the criminal mechanic Rekias Nodo during the time of the Galactic Empire. Esstee-Ninety-Three was a hulking bipedal droid with a pair of powerful piston arms that featured pincers. The droid had a singular red sensor and gray plating with yellow stripes. Esstee-Ninety-Three was a close friend to Gorko, another of Nodo's employees. The employees of the shipyard, located on a jungle planet, dismantled stolen starships for scrap.

When the smugglers Han Solo and Chewbacca crash-landed onto the planet on which Nodo's shipyard was situated at some point after the year 10 BBY, Solo encountered Esstee-Ninety-Three while stealing a heat exchanger from Nodo's yacht to repair his own starship, the Millennium Falcon. Esstee-Ninety-Three was shot and destroyed by Solo, who was subsequently caught by Nodo. Solo and Chewbacca eventually escaped the planet aboard their starship.
