The Movies

A fussy and worry-prone protocol droid, C-3PO was cobbled together from discarded scrap and salvage by a nine-year old prodigy on the desert planet Tatooine.

Expanded Universe

Although C-3PO achieved consciousness in a Mos Espa slave hovel, his frame is actually quite old, and some of his components date back a century, forged on the mechanized world of Affa.

Behind the Scenes

The very earliest story treatment of Star Wars didn't have the now famous droid duo, but instead had a pair of bumbling Imperial bureaucrats as the comic relief.
