Geonosian Pilots are Star Wars minifigures released in the 2003 Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones theme, and reissued in 2011 for the Star Wars: The Clone Wars theme.

Description

The minifigure itself is built like normal minifigures. It is nearly identical to the Geonosian Warrior, the difference being that the warrior has wings. It has a dark gray suit with golden chains and red stones placed on it in various places.

Background

The Geonosian Pilots flew Geonosian Fighters during the Battle of Geonosis and the Second Battle of Geonosis. Unlike the Geonosian Warrior, they did not have wings.

Notes

• In the Star Wars universe, wingless Geonosians are of a lower class than winged Geonosians.
• The old version from 2003 is dark sea gray, whereas the 2011 Clone Wars variation is light brown, with a more detailed torso and better sculpted head.
• In 5000214 LEGO Star Wars Character Encyclopedia, they counted this figure only part of Episode II.
• In 2853402 LEGO Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary, they listed this minifigure as a "Geonosian Drone."
