* C-3PO didn't have a bad response in [[Film/ANewHope the original Star Wars]], but after ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack''... well, in an interview, Creator/GeorgeLucas said some people considered the android "the worst character ever". It's kind of hard to fault them for thinking so due to him gaining characterization in ''Empire'' by being a shrill worrywart that ''never shuts up'' and constantly rattles off unfavorable statistics about their current situation. However, [[VindicatedByHistory most fans have since warmed up to the character]] over the years.

* Oh ''Lord'', Jar Jar Binks got a lot of hate for his role in ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'', that the German and Russian versions of this site named TheScrappy after him. Many would argue the fact that he's [[SpaceJews considered an alien caricature]] of Jamaican people makes him an EthnicScrappy as well. None of them found this supposed PluckyComicRelief character either plucky ''or'' comical--and frankly somebody they needed relief ''from''! ([[Series/SaturdayNightLive Discuss!]]) He is such an infamous character, that there have been at least '''32''' fansites dedicated solely to bashing him. It seems George Lucas got the message, giving Jar Jar Binks a smaller role in ''Film/AttackOfTheClones'' and giving him only a few cameos in ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'', and that's not even getting to the ExpandedUniverse - one reviewer, in particular, noted that seeing [[TakeThatScrappy Jar Jar suspended in carbonite]] was the highlight of ''VideoGame/TheForceUnleashed''.

By the time ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars The Clone Wars]]'' animated series took place, however, Jar Jar has been RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap for some, as [[AdaptationalIntelligence he gets a little more to do and does it competently]], and he's usually considered to be more tolerable; nevertheless, this still does nothing to undo the sheer infamy his film appearances garnered.



* WAC-47 and Colonel Meebur from ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'' were this during the D-squad arc in ''The Clone Wars'', with some people finding the duo so annoying that they even made comparisons to Jar Jar Binks.

While fair share of fans dislike Martez sisters, there is just as many fans who like them, making them more of Base Breaking Characters than outhring Scrappies.

** WAC-47 and Colonel Meebur Gascon were this during the D-squad arc in ''The Clone Wars'', with some people finding the duo so annoying that they even made comparisons to Jar Jar Binks.
** The Martez Sisters were disliked by fans because of their constant idiotic and reckless decisions, the fact they took up an entire arc of the final season with their antics, and a perceived lack of depth. Not helping matters is that they are also [[ReplacementScrappy Replacement Scrappies]], being a [[DecompositeCharacter split replacement]] of a character named [[WhatCouldHaveBeen Nyx Okami]]. Out of the two of them, Rafa gets the most hate because of her [[{{Jerkass}} unpleasant personality]] and NeverMyFault tendencies.

He’s still no longer scrappy so making sure it will be noticed he’s no longer one if adding subverting is disallowed

** This would get [[RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap subverted]] in ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars The Clone Wars]]'', where he had few badass moments and his TheFool status was subject to truly comedic tone. Though, not ''all'' of fans are ready to forgive his character.

They were approved a long time ago as base breakers


%%!!Sequel Trilogy
%% Rey, Rose Tico, and Vice Admiral Holdo have been deemed to have too many fans by The Scrappy Cleanup to count. Don't add back without approval.
