Funko Pop IG-11 with The Child

IG-11 with The Child (Star Wars The Mandalorian)

A great protector

IG-11 is shown here in one of the scenes in the last episode of season one of the series. He is standing fighting and holding a pistol in each hand to protect the child who is clinging to his chest in his small beige bag. IG-11 is a very rustic looking droid since we can see all his mechanism, the wires around his legs and arms, etc… He holds a kind of cannon in his right hand and a smaller pistol in the other hand. His head is oblong and can rotate 360 degrees and sights in the front serve as eyes. Finally, on his chest is hung the child’s satchel. Only his little hands and his head, with his big smile and his big ears, stick out of the bag.

A reconciled duo

IG-11 is the other bounty hunter who was sent to find The Child” at the beginning of the Star Wars The Mandalorian series. While Din Djarin, the Mandalorian Bounty Hunter was ordered to retrieve the child alive and return him to his client, IG-11 was programmed to kill him if he thought he might fall into someone else’s hands. While IG11 and Din Djarin teamed up to enter the fortress where the child was being held, Din Djarin killed IG11 to save the child. At the end of the season, Din Djarin falls back on IG-11 because his friend Kuiil has recovered him and reprogrammed him to become a protective robot. The two of them then accompany Din Djarin when he returns to the planet where his client had given him the mission to help his former guild leader get rid of his troops in exchange for the cancellation of the bounty on him and the child. IG-11 will protect the child and will even end up sacrificing himself to save the child, Din Djarin and his friends.
