Unidentified IG-86 sentinel droid (Cad Bane)

During the Clone Wars, this IG-86 sentinel droid worked as an assassin droid. Built by Holowan Mechanicals, it was recruited in Cad Bane's posse when the bounty hunter was hired to free Ziro Desilijic Tiure from a prison. To accomplish this, Bane planned to take a group of senators as a hostages, and exchange them for Ziro.

The droid accompanied Bane, Shahan Alama, and two BX-series droid commandos when the posse headed to the Republic Executive Building on Coruscant to start the operation to free Ziro. At the entrance of the building, the team was challenged by a group of Senate Commandos, but with the help of Aurra Sing, they were able to eliminate them, thereafter entering the building. After eliminating all of the guards and taking control of the structure, the team captured a crowd of senators at the East Wing of the building. The plan was threatened, however, when Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker was spotted inside the building.

Bane sent Alama and the sentinel droid to capture the Jedi, but Skywalker was able to conceal his presence. The pair then started to search for the Jedi in the rooms of the building. During the search, Skywalker used a mind trick on Alama, convincing him that the pair had two more floors to check. When Alama and the droid split up to search the two remaining floors, Skywalker sneaked behind the droid and ambushed it. The droid fought back, but ultimately proved to be no match for the Jedi Knight. Skywalker smashed the droid against a nearby wall with a Force pushed, and dispatched it with its own damaged blaster rifle.
