    IG-88 got killed in Empire Strikes Back, Bobba Fett wiped him out.

    I've still got an X-Wing, A-Wing, a Scout Walker (2 legged one from ROTJ), Corrilleon Cruiser (huge things they escape from the ice planet in from the start of Empire Strikes Back) and a few other bits I can't remember... Oh, a speeder from Endor! I've got an Ewok glider somewhere I think and loads of figures!

    They're all in pretty good nick too, in the loft at my parent's place at the minute...

    Before answering Vader's call to capture the Millennium Falcon, IG-88B had achieved legendary notoriety. He had killed over 150 beings and had a "dismantle-on-sight" warrant in over 40 systems.

    IG-88's processor computed that Boba Fett would be the hunter most likely to capture Solo. Rather than expend energy on beating Fett to his quarry, IG-88 sought to intercept Fett after Solo had been captured. IG-88B followed Fett to Cloud City, but Fett got the jump on the droid. He blew the droid to pieces in a Cloud City smelting chamber, leaving the mechanical carcass for Ugnaughts to pick apart.

    IG-88C lay in wait for Fett in orbit over Tatooine aboard the modified starship IG-2000. He ordered Fett to surrender his cargo or be destroyed. Fett outmaneuvered the IG-2000 and shot down the vessel, destroying the next droid in the series.

    The last surviving unit, IG-88A (smuggler Dash Rendar had reportedly destroyed unit D on Ord Mantell) continued his plans for conquest. Having crafted a duplicate battle station computer core carrying his sentience, IG-88 arranged for it to be installed aboard the second Death Star. IG-88 became the second Death Star. The megalomaniacal droid was set to activate his countless mechanical co-conspirators scattered throughout the galaxy when the battle station was destroyed at the Battle of Endor. Little did Lando Calrissian and Wedge Antilles realized that when they destroyed the Death Star, they saved the galaxy not only from the Empire, but from IG-88 as well.

    Though IG-88's reign of terror was brought to an end, at least one lifeless shell remained -- the original body of IG-88A. An unknown party has reprogrammed it for bodyguard duty, and it has been seen protecting individuals such as Barpotomous Drebble and Tyko Thul.

    IG-88 is a tall, spindly humanoid droid completely loaded with all manner of concealed weaponry, including a deadly gas dispenser, a flamethrower, a sonic stunner, a pulse cannon and a neural inhibitor projectile launcher.
