Treadwell, Moisture Vaporator and Luke Skywalker

My Lego interpretation of the deleted scene at the beginning of Star Wars. Image of Tatooine's binary suns borrowed from Ralph McQuarrie's concept art for the original Star Wars film.

After the opening scene was cut, the Treadwell droid didn't make it into Star Wars, but it did show up in the Empire Strikes Back, where it was assisting Chewbacca repairing the Millenium Falcon.

Treadwell shows up again in Chapter 10 of The Mandalorian: when Mando returns to Peli’s hanger, a Treadwell repair droid is cooking the dragon meat on a pod racer engine.
