R3-S6 is a Star Wars minifigure. He is based upon the Astromech Droid of the same name from the Clone Wars series.
Background[edit | edit source]
R3-S6 was an astromech droid in the service of the Republic. He was subverted by CIS intelligence forces and reprogrammed as a spy for General Grievous. He was then assigned to Anakin Skywalker as a replacement for R2-D2, who had gone missing during a recent mission.
During a raid on a CIS listening post over Ruusan, Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano and Captain Rex were taken in by R3-S6's betrayal, which led to various setbacks. R2-D2 resurfaced during the mission, and defeated R3-S6 in combat.
Role[edit | edit source]
R3-S6 is both a playable character and adversary in the "Duel of the Droids" scenario in LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars. He assists Ahsoka Tano and Captain Rex in accessing droid panels to unlock forcefields. He is later fought and defeated by R2-D2 at the end of the level by way of a button-pressing sequence.
