Behind the Scenes

The hero saber doesn’t appear in every scene of Episode VI. ESB stunt versions were reused as well.

The official ROTJ saber is no longer based on an MPP flash handle, but on a Graflex. Most likely it was built from a stunt version of the Luke Skywalker ESB . The various black screws in the hilt were used to fix the stunt blade in place. The glass eye was replaced by a new part that looks like a car tire valve seal. Instead of the bunny ears, a new part is attached to the emitter. Where it comes from is unknown.

Reviews and Galleries

For this lightsaber design we have various reviews and picture galleries of versions that are or were available to buy.

Is the archive incomplete?

Even though we put a lot of work into the content ourselves, we don’t know everything and don’t own every lightsaber.
