General

2BB-2 had blue plating and was equipped with a black security-grade photoreceptor with a telescopic lens. 2BB-2's head did not include the full dome that some BB-series droids possessed, instead lacking plating in some areas and revealing the workings beneath.

Page Template:Quote/styles.css must have content model "Sanitized CSS" for TemplateStyles (current model is "wikitext").

The body still has the basic six circular panels, but now other panels break up the Y-sections and intersect those circular panels. The head still keeps the eyes, protected by a cowling, but breaks up the dome to reveal the inner workings.

+BB-2 had blue plating and was equipped with a black security-grade [[photoreceptor]] with a telescopic lens. 2BB-2's head did not include the full dome that some BB-series droids possessed, instead lacking plating in some areas and revealing the workings beneath.
-The [[Resistance navy|Resistance fleet]] successfully escaped its attacking foes and jumped to [[hyperspace]]. However, upon arriving at its [[Oetchi system|destination]], the [[fleet]] immediately came under [[Attack on the Resistance fleet|attack]] from the First Order again, having been [[Hyperspace tracker|tracked through hyperspace]]. At some stage, 2BB-2 exited the command bridge, which was then destroyed, [[Death|killing]] all who had remained there except for [[General]] [[Leia Organa]].<ref name="TLJ" />
-The [[droid]] then attended a meeting on the ''Raddus''{{'s}} ventral emergency bridge, where [[Commander]] [[Larma D'Acy]] announced the Resistance's casualties and named [[Vice Admiral]] [[Amilyn Holdo]] the Resistance's new leader while Organa recovered from her injuries. A small portion of the Resistance ultimately survived the attack and escaped from the First Order on the planet [[Crait]].<ref name="TLJ" />
