It's what my two-year old used to call C-3PO. Now he has shortened it to "Pee-See-Oh".

I AM A CP-30.

A typo.

Close, that's C3-PX, I believe was his name.

What was once a typo, now I believe will become the actual nickname for the C3PO alternate art card.

What did C3PX do with the folding stock of his E-11? What is that lump of metal next to the nonstandard scope?

We want answers!

All this nonstandard equipment leads to this only reasinable conclusion: Its eiter a bounty hunter or a rebel.

Who says that's an E-11? It might be a knock-off brand or another completely different model. Or artistic liscence.

I will not be lead to raisinable conclusions! The folding stocks are a lie propagated by the RebelScum in order to convince us that there is an easier way to hold our guns.

The metal lump is a rations container. It keeps your rations dry and warm so long as you never stop shooting RebelScum.

Knock off maybe, but signs pointing to it's E11ness:

Cylindrical rear of gun, spartan handle, small magazine jutting out of left side. - just like the DH17 (also based on the Stirling). the barrel is also remarkably E11 like, albeit with modifications.

Signs against: Missing fore ironsights, no counter(though many E11s do not have this) different scope, weird triangular thing that looks like part of a clone rifle, as mentioned: missing folding stock - like the DH17.

it's like they glued the front of a clone rifle upside down onto the back of an E-11 or DH17.

Funny story: At Star Wars Celebration they announced some new emotes for Twitter (or something like that; I'm not familiar with it). The one for C3PO was spelled "CP30". Later on, when Anthony Daniels took the stage, he poked fun at the typo by saying how honored he was to play as everyone's favorite golden droid, "C-P3O."

EDIT: @hothie, were you referring to the typo on the announcement page, or the typo at Celebration earlier this year?

EDIT 2: The link has a video, but that's not the part that's interesting. It's the text beneath it. I can't find a better site that chronicled the incident.

We're being reasonable then?

*sigh*

It's just the carbine model with a different scope and barrel shroud.

(I preferred the rations container explanation though.)

The bigger question is how did he get a spare IG-88 head and why is he carrying it around everywhere?

That's a rocket.

It's commonly mistaken for an IG-88 head due the similarities they share namely the coneish shape and the tenancy to explode violently.

Rockets however, tend to lack the characteristic body and universal hatred for all sentients of IG-88s and so are considered to be the more trustworthy of the two.

Hate rocket. Yeah, that needs to be a thing.

What is a C!?

*glass shatter*

A MISERABLE PILE OF REPRINTS!!!

BUT ENOUGH TALK! GUESS ZERO!

A typo.

You mean a T-YPO?

It's so he can make tactical bacon or some other stupid demonstration of independence.

Scum need a C-3PX crew card.

"SCUM ONLY.

Once per round, before you roll 1 or more attack dice, you may guess aloud the total number of hit & crit results. If you roll that many hit & crit results (before modifying dice), add 1 crit result."

I actually really like that idea.

Looks more like some kind of weird drinks dispenser to me
