- "R8, begin scanning for entry points to the cruiser."
- ―Mace Windu to R8-B7 on Vanqor
R8-B7 was an R-series astromech droid, used by Jedi Master Mace Windu during the Clone Wars. During the war, R8 accompanied Windu to the planet Vanqor, where they looked for survivors of the crash of a Venator-class Star Destroyer Endurance. Alongside Anakin Skywalker and fellow astromech R2-D2, R8 and Windu searched the wreckage of the cruiser, unaware of a pair of gundarks stalking the group. After the Jedi journeyed further into the crash site, the gundarks attacked the two droids and tore apart R8 during the struggle.[2]

Notes and references[]
- ↑ Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious dates the events of "Death Trap" to 7956 C.R.C., which correlates to 21 BBY and
Star Wars Helmet Collection 76 (Highlights of the Saga: The End of Endurance) similarly dates the events of "Lethal Trackdown" to 21 BBY. As "R2 Come Home" occurs between those two episodes according to Star Wars: The Clone Wars Chronological Episode Order on StarWars.com (backup link), the episode, and therefore R8-B7's death, must also take place in 21 BBY.
