Stewart Copeland was a member of "The Police". He played the drums for the group. The song is in the "new wave" style. The cartoon tried to be as hip as it could be for 1985. The hair styles from all of the characters also represented the "new wave" era of fashion.

Answer: Kez Iban

Mon Julpa's memory had been erased. He had no idea who he was. Uncle Gundy and Jann Tosh had been trying to figure out a name for him. Uncle Gundy said the word "Kez Iban" after his life was saved by Mon Julpa. Jann Tosh wondered what it was. C-3PO told him that it was a Bocce word meaning "He that returns from death". Jann liked it and decided that "Kez Iban" would be Mon Julpa's new name.

Answer: the "Fromm" gang

They belonged to the "Fromm" gang. It was their last name. They were the enemies in the first four episodes. "Droids" also had a toy line based off the show. The characters that were available are C-3PO, R2-D2, Thall Joben, Jord Dusat, Kea Moll, Tig Fromm, Sise Fromm, Jann Tosh, Uncle Gundy, Kez Iban, A-wing Pilot, and Boba Fett. Both the A-wing Pilot and Boba Fett were left overs from the original Star Wars toy line.

A second series for the toy line was planned but never produced. The unproduced characters were Mungo Baobab, Jessica Meade, Kleb Zellock, Mon Julpa, Govenor Koong, Admiral Screed, Gaff, and Vlix. Vlix was available in Brazil though. Making him very valuable to collectors. Along with action figures there were a few vehicles based off the show as well.

The entire series of "Droids" has been available on VHS.
