The Assassin Droid to date has had two variants- a white version, released in the [[set]] [[10188 Death Star]], and a silver version first released in the set [[8015 Assassin Droids Battle Pack]].
Assassin Droid is built out of 8 pieces with only one piece that is not coloured silver. The head is bult of a white stud, cone, bar 1.5L with clip, and a transparent orange stud in between the other stud and cone. The body is made from a [[Part 30375|''minifig mechanical torso'']], a straight and curved robotic arm, and conected robot legs. This variation only appears in [[10188 Death Star]].

The white version of the Assassin Droid has plain white pieces, except for one [[Transparent Bright Orange|transparent orange]] [[Part 4073|stud]] used in the head, and a [[black]] clip piece used to join the head to the body. The head is made up of the black clip, a white cone which is attached to the clip, the transparent orange stud to represent photoreceptors, and a white stud on top for the top of the head. The torso, legs and arms are all the same as the pieces used in a standard [[Battle Droid]], but in white. Both arms on this droid are bent and have hands that are parallel to the body.

Assassin Droid was a highly advanced droid mainly hired by Bounty Hunters, crime lords, and corrupt politicians to exacute specific targets. These droids generally performed with unflinching loyalty to their masters. Since their missions generally required a far higher degree of independent skill, savvy, and judgment than normally possessed by simple war droids, their programming subroutines, circuitry, and memory cores were of correspondingly higher sophistication and quality.

Description

The Assassin Droid to date has had two variants- a white version, released in the set 10188 Death Star, and a silver version first released in the set 8015 Assassin Droids Battle Pack.

The white version of the Assassin Droid has plain white pieces, except for one transparent orange stud used in the head, and a black clip piece used to join the head to the body. The head is made up of the black clip, a white cone which is attached to the clip, the transparent orange stud to represent photoreceptors, and a white stud on top for the top of the head. The torso, legs and arms are all the same as the pieces used in a standard Battle Droid, but in white. Both arms on this droid are bent and have hands that are parallel to the body.

The second, silver variant initially released in 2009 is similar in makeup to the original, except all of the black and white pieces were changed to silver. Additionally, one arm is turned so that the droid is able to hold a blaster or a blaster rifle.
