The lightsaber that Mark Hamill used in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back when Darth Vader cut off Luke Skywalker’s hand was up for auction, and it sold for an amount that is out of this world.
How much did Heritage Auction get for the severed hand holding the handle of a lightsaber? A whopping $3.75 million.
According to the auction house, “The prop department constructed this lightsaber from a modified 3-cell Graflex flash unit fitted with a Kobold flash attachment forming the lower section. Additional studio modifications include black plastic “T-track” grips and a custom faux clamp box replacing the standard Graflex clamp assembly.”
How much would you have paid for it?
