You are the man!!! Thank you so much!! B

Yeah-- celebration saber is most def painted resin.

I think the one in the desert box is either a stunt, or an off-the shelf saber. It has all the hallmarks of an insert shot done by a secondary team outside of the main production. I am of course thrilled the graflex looks ANH-ish... but yeah, those ears tho...

 

[Joek3rr]

Check out those ears

I'm looking....but I must confess I don't know what I'm looking for. My eye isn't trained, yet, to see the subtle differences in a Graflex.

I don't want to disrupt the flow too much. But anyone have an idea of the Graflex used? I know some have a real eye for seeing the differences.

It’s a Master Replicas, specifically the ‘2006 Limited Edition ANH Luke Skywalker’ with screen accurate clamp position. (NOT the 2005 Elite Edition with promo pic clamp position!)

-Square profile grips with ends rounded off
-Lack of real Graflex locking channel in clamp slot
-Reflective mirror/chrome under bubble strip
-Unique shape of the button & clamp lever
-Shiny chrome bunny ears

The prop hanging on the Celebration costume display is definitely a resin or rubber stunt cast!
But Obi-Wan‘s hero saber is also a Master Replicas, albeit modified with a Roman Props ANH Emitter. There are several tells!

Also on a somewhat related note the Vader saber in the new Obi-Wan series is also believed to be a Master Replicas as well, the faux end cap and it’s clearance under the T-track grips, overall thickness, & angled grips are a dead giveaway. Also the clamp position & mirror/chrome under the bubble strip!

 

[Halliwax]

Thanks slyfox for that graflex info, any chance you can share the tells of the master replicas Kenobi? I know about the pommel cubes, but curious as to what else

Clamp card graphic?

 

[Halliwax]

Dude you’re right!! Check out that curve under the lever!!

 

[Halliwax]

Amazed production is buying all these master replicas.. then again.. cheaper in the long run then having a shop fabricate them

 

[onderon]

Or some crew member in props department had one at home and brought it into the production

If you need comparison pics to the MR here are the old rebelscum ones...

 

[probablyjarrett]

must be the camera angle too.. but that balance pipe looks oval-ed in "Needles" hand, the top of the grenade looks funky too..

wonder if its a rubber stunt or something..

Just this morning I was noticing that you couldn't see through the bubble card. And I was starting to suspect.

If they’re going with off the shelf options for heroes that says a lot about the time/budget. I’m loving the show, but seeing lots of tells that tell me this doesn’t have the time and money Mando does. It’s not as cheap as Book of Boba Fett was, but theres tells for sure.

 

[NagorbArt]

It looks from the resin hilt on display that it could be the static Romans balance pipe that was cast. Looks like the internal with the threading instead of the blade plug.

Dude it was one of the biggest **** shows ever. It was run very badly. It did not feel like a SW production at all really.

 

[janglesworthy]

TBOB or Kenobi was run badly?
