AP-5

AP-5 is an RA-7 protocol droid who served as an analyst droid on a Galactic Republic attack cruiser during the Clone Wars. At the end of the conflict, the Republic was replaced by the Galactic Empire, and AP-5 was relegated to inventory duty aboard the cargo transport 241, an Imperial cargo ship. In 1974, AP-5 encountered the astromech droid Chopper when the latter hid in the cargo ship while evading several pursuing stormtroopers. Tired of being mistreated, the inventory droid befriended Chopper, helping him steal the cargo ship and providing his rebel allies with a suitable location for a secret base.
After joining the rebellion, AP-5 continued working as an inventory droid for the Phoenix Cell at Chopper Base on the planet Atollon. Despite his grumpy and sarcastic personality, AP-5 remained loyal to his new rebel masters. During a mission on Wynkahthu, AP-5 played an indispensable role in helping the Spectres to recover cargo from a derelict Imperial cargo ship. Later, AP-5 along with the Lasat warrior Garazeb Orrelios and Chopper helped to stop the E-XD infiltrator droid EXD-9 from reporting their base's location to the Empire. Following the Battle of Atollon, AP-5 joined the remnants of Phoenix Cell on Yavin IV.
At some point, AP-5 found his way to Earth where he was placed in a junkyard until being tracked down by the Remnant who brought him to New York City and refurbished him after Ezra Bridger had reformed the Spectres. When AP-5 saw Chopper, the two immediately began a new argument over the meaning of scrap. AP-5 eventually joined Ezra and Chopper at the home of Gary McKnight who eventually put AP-5 to work in his shoe store where he joined Gary and on occasion Josh Myers in hurling insults at the store's many overweight and rude customers many of whom gave him the nickname of "Bug-Face".
In a possible future shown to Jacen Syndulla by Kanan Jarrus, it is mentioned that Josh has taken over the shoe store while AP-5 has been joined by a new astromech droid known as BB-8. The adult Josh mentions to an adult Noah Rodgers that AP-5 likes to rearrange the store's inventory and that it tended to annoy Gary at times. By 2030, AP-5's frequent rearranging and at times disposing of the inventory leads Josh to hire Christopher Felth to keep watch over the store and prevent the droid from making the inventory disappear. By Christmas of 2030, AP-5 has been banned from Noah's after attempting to inventory Noah's food supplies.
