Here's the K3-P0 action figure from that Hoth 'Defense' figure set. He's really one of those under-rated droid figure from the trilogy. I mean, nobody gave a darn about a droid who only had a few seconds of screen time. But who knew that he held a high-ranking post in the Rebel Alliance Hoth base.
K3-P0 didn't make it through the Hoth fiasco. It's true, here's a screen shot from the movie to prove it:
Think that it was one of the Empire's laser blast that killed him? Wrong. He 'died' when he was hit by a tauntaun's flapping tail. Seriously. You can read all about it here. You can say that nobody important died during the battle of Hoth.
