The MPH power droid[2] was a model of power droid.
One MPH power droid was present in 10 BBY[3] at Camp Forward during the Mimban Campaign.[4] MPH-11[1] was an MPH power droid that worked in the spice mines of Kessel for the Pyke Syndicate[5] that same year.[3] Along with the other droids enslaved in the mines, MPH-11 was freed during a revolt started by L3-37.[5]
Years later, around 9 ABY,[6] Peli Motto owned a MPH power droid to help her run Hangar 3-5 in Mos Eisley.[7]
Behind the scenes[]
MPH power droid first appeared in the 2018 film Solo: A Star Wars Story.[5] MPH-11 was first identified in the accompanying reference book Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide, which was written by Pablo Hidalgo[1] but the actual model was only identified in a video posted to the Star Wars Kids YouTube channel in July 2019.[2] MPH-11 was played by Jimmy Vee[8] while another droid on Mimban was played by Hassan Taj.[4]

SWCC 2019: 9 Things We Learned from The Mandalorian Panel on StarWars.com (backup link) establishes that The Mandalorian is set about five years after the events of Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 4 ABY. Therefore, the events of The Mandalorian must have taken place around 9 ABY.
