Among
some of the last figures produced, the Power of the Force line
became instantly collectible because they are some of the rarest of
the original line. EV-9D9 only came on a POTF card with her coin and
no accessories. Despite having no guns (like pretty much every droid
in the original line - except bounty hunters) it is a cool figure -
look at reason #1.
Why should you get this figure? Five reasons:
1.
Look at the last picture. There is lever in the back of her head
which makes here mouth move. That's more action than any other figure
in the line!
2. A female droid? Yes, a female droid. All the literature says so. When are you ever going to get a female droid again?
3. That third eye. Not only is she a control freak, she's a freak-freak.
4. The ultimate head caterer for any sail barge/Jedi roast get-together.
5. She is one crazy b*tch.
Backstory:
EV-9D9
actually worked in Cloud City during Lando's management. However,
her sadomasochistic tendencies got the better of her and she
systematically tortured many of the droids in Bespin. After her
controller found out, she fled the system, but not before partially
sabotaging the City as a distraction. She found her way to Jabba's
palace and quickly climbed the ranks. She secretly built a room for
her tortuous experiments and built droids out of spare parts that felt
pain, even giving pain receptors to droids that didn't have them,
for her own sick pleasure.
After finding
out that Lando had infilitrated the palace, EV-9D9 thought that he
and his droids (R2 an C-3PO) were there for her, although they were
there for Han. Before she could implement any recourse, she was
tracked down by one of the tortured droids from Bespin, which let
loose her own creations on her.
