I think that's the species that created Vuffi-Raa, Lando Calrissian's droid companion from the Adventures of Lando Calrissian.

Their appearances are described by Daniel Wallace as equivalent to UFO sightings in the real world.
I take it that's some obscure EU stuff?
Indeed. Nonetheless they could clean the Empire's clocks with consumate ease, and are a machine civilization.

That doesn't get into the question of whether droid rebellion was a serious issue in the Star Wars past. Some people are saying it was in the EU fluff?

I remember that series - some interesting ideas that sadly haven't been capitalized on in other Star Wars fare. I quite liked the idea of a droid with fractal limbs.
