Affectionately dubbed “Chopper” by his crewmates, this C1-series astromech served as a crucial member of the Spectres, a cell of rebels led by General Hera Syndulla. C1-10P proved his loyalty to his squad time and again, even when it went against his best interests and his better judgement…and he never let anyone forget about it.

Chopper was already well past him prime by the time the Galactic Civil War began, as evidenced by his rusty shell and crusty personality. Maybe that’s why he threw himself so completely into every mission his team went on: He knew it might very well be his last. (Of course, he ha shaken plenty of gears loose over the decades, so that could have been a factor, too…)

When I first met Chopper aboard Home One, we got off on the wrong foot. Of course, looking at his mismatched leg struts, I’m not sure C1-10P was ever really on the right foot anyway. (Oooh! That was a Class Two burn!)

chopper purring 😼😻

“And that there is one of my favorite things, when Chopper purrs.  Chopper, I’ve always said, at heart is actually a really nice character, a good character, but he’s often gruff on the outside.  But I thought the animation really sells that, the kindness in that moment.” — Dave Filoni, Trials of the Darksaber Blu-ray audio commentary

kanan messing up the names of the crew (forgetting Chopper) in front of Cham Syndulla.

I know people always attribute his nervousness to be a Nervous BoyfriendTM, and I 100% agree that’s part of it…

But I remember the creators saying that it’s also because Cham fought with Windu back in the Clone Wars. It’s canon that Windu used to tell stories to Caleb. The creators said that Kanan is really excited/nervous to meet Cham because, in his mind, it’s one of the last connections he has with his master and grand master. 

Wait, and why did Chopper want to be introduced anyway? Doesn’t he already Cham? Cham recognized him as “that old astromech”…

Chop is petty and easily offended that way ❤
