The Movies

Perhaps the oddest being that could ever become a bounty hunter is a protocol droid . Yet it happened in the case of 4-LOM . This droid answered the call sent out by Darth Vader to capture the Millennium Falcon after the Battle of Hoth .

Expanded Universe

The manufacturers of the LOM unit, Industrial Automaton, could never have guessed that one of their products would deviate so far from its original programming parameters. 4-LOM began his electronic life as a cabin steward aboard a luxury liner.

Behind the Scenes

Much of the 4-LOM costume was made of recycled protocol droid costumes. The name was developed as an acronym of sorts for: "for love of money," quite fitting for a bounty hunter.
