The Thrawn Trilogy Sourcebook at one point mistakenly calls this model the "MN-2D."
While The Thrawn Trilogy Sourcebook and The Essential Guide to Droids interpret the MN-2E as a floating, non-humanoid model, the Death Star Technical Companion described and illustrated the model as roughly humanoid and moving on treaded wheels. The illustration of this model used in the Death Star Technical Companion was used in the The Rebel Alliance Sourcebook to represent the M38-series explorer droid.
