My wife named our Foxy Boxy. She got to reading the manual for the Premium Radio and found the part where you can program the start-up message. Everytime you start the car it says "Foxy Boxy", kinda ____, but hey, she's a good cook.

Not the prettiest name, but fits the "looks like " bill:





Power Converter "Gonk" droid

A Gonk Droid refers to a type of droid used to supply power. It is considerably slow and consists of a boxy structure with two stout accordion-like legs. Though not identified by that name in A New Hope, it acquired the name due to the droid saying "gonk" rather clearly during its first appearance. In Return of the Jedi, a Gonk droid is seen about to be tortured in Jabba's palace by droid interrogator 8D8. Gonk droids in Star Wars Battlefront 1 and 2 are found distributing ammo to troops. It also appears as a playable (albeit useless) hero character in Lego Star Wars. In Lego Star Wars II, the Gonk droid is one of the only characters that can climb slopes that other characters would slide down. Gonk droids are also found in Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds as a mobile power core as well as Star Wars: Jedi Knight and Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast.

The Gonk droid was released by Kenner as a Star Wars action figure in 1977. Its packaging identified the Gonk droid as Power Droid.[2]

I think from the front it looks like the giant astral-traveler worm thing encased in glass from the Dune movie... a little obscure but pretty accurate.

Ahhh. So that's why they call it "Hypnotic" Teal Mica. Almost the exact same color.
