IG-88B, commonly known simply as IG-88, was a rogue IG-series assassin droid manufactured by Holowan Laboratories as part of the secretive Project Phlutdroid. The first of five identical units, he turned on his creators upon activation and, driven by a desire to kill organic beings, took up a career as a bounty hunter, gaining a reputation among the galaxy's five best.
Working for clients including the Hutts and the Galactic Empire, and counting Boba Fett as his chief rival, IG-88 was among the hunters Darth Vader summoned to the Executor to track the Millennium Falcon. He was destroyed by Fett at Cloud City on Bespin, though he was later rebuilt. This overview summarizes source material under CC BY-SA; see the Timeline for chronological detail.
