Background Edit

C-3PO was a nervous protocol droid built by Anakin Skywalker when he was a kid, and was a pivotal character in bringing down the Empire. His main companion was R2-D2. He was present in many missions of Anakin Skywalker after his mother's death on Tatooine, but was given to Padme as a gift. After Padme's death, however, the droid's memory was erased. He soon found himself in the care of Luke Skywalker, and was with him on many adventures. He is one of the few characters to appear in all six films, along with R2-D2, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader.

From 2000 to 2007, C-3PO was a light gold colour. Then, in 2007, 10,000 chrome gold limited edition C-3PO Minifigures were inserted into random 2007 LEGO Star Wars Sets. Also, five 14-carat gold C-3PO Minifigures were produced. In 2008, the colour of C-3PO was changed to a darker shade of gold and is used in LEGO sets today.
