C-3PO is a extreamly cheap droid, so cheap you can build one out of scrap components you find laying around on a junkyard in planet Bublefuck Outer Rim (that's sector Bublefuck SW Galaxy).unbeataBULL wrote: it indicates that he's slow, not that he's too slow for his purposes. i would argue that if he were faster, he could fulfill more duties, and become more of a secretary/protocol droid, thus increasing efficiency. it isn't expensive to make a droid walk smoothly, and it is even less difficult to make a droid on wheels. so why wasn't he built on wheels? that's what i don't understand.
SW still has such primitive tech?
