Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The LM-432 crab droid, also simply referred to as a crab droid, was a battle droid used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. Its name was derived from its six-legged scuttling movement and organic appearance, though it belonged to the spider droid family. These droids were also nicknamed "muckrackers" because of their extensive use in marshy terrain.
