Golden Droid #7 (aka, Golden Egg D-7) is located on level 3-36 of Angry Birds Star Wars Hoth. The Golden Droid is in the extreme top-right corner of the level, well out of reach of any birds. Use Leia’s tractor beam to lift the stone slab right of the Droid. Coincidentally, it settles at the perfect angle to ricochet Han’s blaster off of the slab. Once you hit the Droid, you’ll immediately be transported via hyperdrive to the bonus level. The video below contains two parts. The first part reveals the Droid’s location on level 3-36 and how to obtain it. The second part shows you how to pass Droid level #7 (D-7) with 3 stars.

All I can get is that 161,080 = 2* and that 164,860 = 3*
Pretty sure that 163,*** is just about possible with 1 bird low damage, and that 162,*** is just about possible with 2 bird very high damage. Will try for next 2 hours to find minimum;/
The 3-Star score of this level is 162,000, because I used a few amount of power-ups to find the minimum 3-Star score.
I had better luck without destroying C3PO, just pushing through the first planet, then the meteorites. Can it be called a blaoted droid?
@lvmh I found the same thing. Destroying him seemed to throw too much debris into the outer atmosphere costing points. Leaving him intact seemed to keep everything nice and snuggled within both planets atmospheres so that the revolving rocks have a better chance of crushing the small stones. Aim C3PO at the small stone above the rock directly in front of the sling. He should slice right through and gently push the back rock into the next planets atmosphere. Results obviously can vary but from what I could see my 170,680 score had no little stones left over. GL:)
@JLZ – good advice, although I haven’t quite gotten 170k yet.
Thanks @jlz-666 ;-) I also found the “Bloated C3PO” worked best but was shooting him at the top left edge of the left stone for 168K scores. I tried Your strat sending him through the little stone just above where I was aiming and got my score up to 169940 ;-)
btw…It sure did get annoying having the “instructional pic” show up (about every 5th try) of how to use his powers, lol ;-)
Thanks @jlz-666, @lvmh, definately the way to go on this one. Interestingly I couldn’t get it to work going through the small stone directly below the large rock, only through the upper one. I thought with a symmetrical arrangement it would work both ways but I guess not.
I love the term “bloated droid” – I know the feeling :)
You’re right about the symmetry @karen68 Once I realised the bloated droid was the way to go I tried coming at it from the stone below but had a completely different outcome. It looks like the sweetspot is absolutely the first little stone above the rock. I wish I knew if this is the technique for getting another 1k as I really can’t move from this score. I’m just back to work today after a very indulgent 10 day holiday & believe me I’m feeling every inch a bloated droid at the moment ;) @lesleyg yep it’s extremely annoying being told how to fling lol! It happened on another couple of levels in Star Wars that drove me nuts!
169590 – I sent 3PO south, grazing SE pig, and activated it as it got to the bottom rock. Things go right, and up, collapsing both small and large rings to planets. I had to wait at times for a small part of one of the right rocks to get inside the gravitational field of the right planet.
Still working on 170K or more.
Regardless of the way shots are made and rings collapse, IMO the only way beyond 170K is to destroy the rocks. Which generally means the small ring has to go completely to the upper or lower planet. I haven’t fond a way to make the large ring go to the solid surfaces.

Thanks @jlz-666, your aiming tip with the “bloated droid” strategy worked like a charm for me!
Nice score! @furfeather I’m stuck at 170,680. With the top score 1k above me I think there must have been a couple of the smaller stones hiding within the tangle of large rocks. Glad I could help though! GL :)
Fun level – great to see the chain reaction unfold.
ERM … Flocked getting the droid by a random piece of debris sent flying by the TNT!
A strategy that will yield consistant (about one in ten shots) scores of 170,000 is to send C3PO to barely touch the 12:00 rock so that he ricochets into the upper planet. Detonate C3PO IMMEDIATELY upon reaching the upper planet. The debris should touch a stone in the large ring and send that ring into the singularity. This method appears to destroy the blocks more evenly. I think it is because the rings are collapsing unbroken. I have no idea how scoring is on this level. I have destroyed every single stone many many times and have had scores ranging from 169,000 to 171,000 with what looks like exactly the same total destruction.
Hey Wicket – welcome on board. Great to see your scores.
Watch the boulders in the first planet – if they move into the top planet – they destruct for 300 points each when they contact C3PO’s body bits. This might explain the disparity.
Cheers! @wicket182 Just thought I’d come back and see if anyone had figured out how to squeeze more out of this one and well…….I still don’t know but I did improve by 200 points doing it this way! Interestingly though,my “snake chain” in the right hand planet took a detour to the bottom planet before slinking it’s way back to the right,which was fun to watch! Don’t know if that made any difference to the crushing of the stones/chains but hey…whatever! I don’t think we’ll ever find the reason for that extra 600 points that the top scorer has. Thanks again :)
Thanks @wicket182 :) brought my score up buy almost 1k :) enough to get into the top 100 club:)
@wicket once again you’ve hit a brilliant strat! Thanks for sharing :) I agree with alo10w seems those extra points are from the boulders crashing to smithereens, that’s my take on it anyways.
@Kimmiecv nice score Pahtna !!! :) Wtg:)
Erm thanks @Kathy :D I just shocked myself!! LOL
Haha @Kimmiecv now you got me try ing again lol;)
Whoa!!! @Kimmiecv you didn’t have the trophy when i typed that!!!
WTG!!! Wooo Hooo that sure looks much better with your name next to it!!
*High Fives * ^5
That’s what shocked me @Kathy!! I figured I’d just landed in maybe the top 5 if I was lucky!! Hahahaaa :D *High fives* Pahtna!!
@Kathy it’s definantly the boulders!! The more that crush the better the score! Hard to do though, yep lots of luck in the crushing LOL
@JLZ-666 just so you can sleep at night, the answer to the top scores is the boulders, get a few crushed and your score goes up! ;)
Nice shooting Miss @Kimmiecv! Congrats on top score! I knew it had to be the big boulders,it’s just unfortunate it doesn’t happen that often. Also I don’t have your patience so I’m not going to try to top your score……..or am I?? LOL!! Thanks for the shout out letting me know you’re on top & how you got there. Don’t know when I would have came back in here otherwise!
Thanks @JLZ-666 I’ll enjoy it as long as it lasts!! :) Your in the top scorers as well so you must have gotten lucky with a boulder at least!! Well played! And that’s it for now with the evil AB twins! On to seasons!! :D
Thanks @wicket182!
I leaded your comment, challenge this level.
My score on top 10!
inspired and use the strat. from @wicket182
hit the 12:00-rock, C3PO go to upper planet, activate in the middle of the atmosphere.
a splinter hit the 09:00-rock on right side, break the ring.
two big boulder fall to the upper planet, the rest fall to the right side
here a video with 171770

I an unsure that my shot was strictly identical to @comex666‘s vid, but the outcome was the same (two boulders fell and were destroyed on lower left planet). My better score than comex comes from the fact that no metal square at all survived from the small circle, so it was a really clean shot. I got my score after less than one hour of tries, therefore this may not be the most difficult shot ever to get a puppy.

I employed the strategy of wicket182. Worked out pretty well while sitting at a swim meet with nothing to do but play angry birds for hours at a time. 172,130
ABSW D-7.jpg @sweetp
I also did the @wickett82 strat. Thanks to him and also to @comex666 for the video. As the video shows, a piece of C3PO needs to hit the square block right above the 9:00 rock. Nothing else seems to work.
For the underdog https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/members/stocktoad/album/picture/14771/ @sweetp @kelani
The underdog @stocktoad flies again!!
@wicket182, @sglouk & @stocktoad, for your scores, after being hit by piece from C-3PO, did the large string of boulders on the right first move slightly left & “snake” into the gravity field of lower planet as in @comex666 video? I’ve had 2 171k scores & both times the large string “snaked” left into the gravity field of the lower planet before being pulled to the right as in comex666 video.
@justpast40
For me, it is the boulder rather than the chain that was sucked by the gravitational field, but yes, you need that the C-3PO debris bounce on the chain so that a part of it is deflected to the left.
@justpast40
For a good score you need to have two boulders to crash on the small planet. Given the configuration of the big chain, it is not obvious that having more than two boulders doing this is possible.
@justpast40, this is how I got my score
Yes, @justpast40 I’ve had several scores over 170K and all of them were just like @comex666 ‘s video, snaking into the lower left planet gravity field. By the way, I have done a little more experimenting, and not only does the piece of C3PO need to hit the little square, but it also seems to have to glance off the 9:00 rock just under it for a little extra push. There isn’t much room for error there.
Also……C3PO breaks up into several pieces. The smaller 3 look sort of like an acorn, a feather, and a key. Generally I would say that you want the acorn to hit the little square above the 9:00 rock, but I did have one time where the feather did it, although not for a particularly high score.
I used the strategy of @wicket182 to get my current score of 172,240 points. C-3PO needs to make just enough contact with the boulder at 12:00 to turn slightly clockwise. Then I detonated him right before he made contact with the upper gold planet. A small piece of C-3PO then hit the small stone square & the top of the 9:00 boulder, just as @stocktoad wrote. This sent the 9:00 boulder & the one below it into the lower gold planet, before the rest of the chain was pulled to the far right planet. Points were still accumulating when the level closed out.
@sweetp & @kelani – https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/members/meanguy/album/picture/14775/
Congrats to all the new puppy owners !
Good luck & happy flinging to all !!
I’ve literally had every small square smashed and only got 169k but my 3 times over 170k all left metal squares behind. The ONLY thing left were pieces of exploded gold droid (or whatever he is) – but when I watch boulders I have never seen those crushed under any circumstances. Where are the extra 2k coming from? Are points awarded for boulders just hitting each other even if nothing is destroyed? This is all I can think of. Congrats to puppy owners…I have ten minutes left to raise enough for my own adoption…
@maiasatara I’m not getting this to you in time for the challenge, but…. Watch @comex666 ‘s video. Two of the big boulders get destroyed on the lower left planet. That is where the extra points come from.
@bernersenn can you please change the minimum 3-star score for this level please.
I found out that the 3-star score for this level is 162,000 just by using power-ups to find out.
@mubinazo
The 3-star score has been adjusted. Thanks a lot for this.
your welcome!
