The IG-100 Magna Guards are fictional droids seen in the movie Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and The Clone Wars microseries. They are the personal bodyguards to General Grievous who wield electrified staffs that can block lightsabers.

When General Grievous was transformed into a cyborg, he could no longer have a bodyguard of warriors from his native planet. So Darth Sidious ordered Holowan Mechanicals (which would later become Holowan Labs, and continue refining the IG series) to create the IG-100 series to serve as General Grievous's bodyguards. Their headcloths and capes make them resemble warriors from Kalee, General Grievous's home world.

The IG-100 Magna Guard series are droids that were designed specifically by General Grevious which came from the success of the IG series droid plans that the InterGalactic Banking Clan managed to procure and develop. The Magna Guard Series carries usually an electrostaff as its personal weapon of choice. To supplement its melee combat capability the droids are also equipped with twin guided missile launcher magazines placed on their backs. The droids are remarkably resilient, even for a droid design. They are capable of surviving decapitation and still fight effectively, due to back up processors in their chests. The strong Cortosis metal that their bodies are constructed from allow the droids to survive great falls. Furthermore, their hands can detach from their sockets and attach to other surfaces or objects. Equally deadly is the combat programming of the droids.

A typical strategy of these droids is to fight in groups of two, weakening opponents from group attacks until finally exhausting them to the point where they are easy prey.

General Grievous refused to have them repainted in any way, insisting their chipped paintwork makes them look more fearsome.
