Nathan Hamill Saber

[BAlinger15]

This polaroid came from someone in the ILM model shop. It's the same lightsaber "prop" that Nathan Hamill was photographed with in the mid 80s. I assume the model shop made it up to give to him? Obviously not from the films.

Neat, it's great that they documented this

Yea, that's what's I've read too. I seem to recall reading that he left it in a park or movie theater (Kids will be kids) and it's long gone. I hope I'm wrong.

I’ve never seen those pictures before! There is one more clear picture that was shot the same time as the couch picture

Gives you another view of it

I love the name of this saber too

I think the story around this prop is the basis for the belief that Hamill took a lightsaber prop home with him when the trilogy wrapped. He’s been pretty adamant that he doesn’t have one.

Last time we talked about this I said I recalled another photo from the shoot-- Brandon found it! I remember seeing it in my mom's Peiople magazine in the 80s.

Awwwwwww, that's so stinkin' cute. And cool.

 

[freakinkram88]

That’s pretty cool. Wonder if Nathan has seen this lately

 

[SethS]

Rumor has it he lost it at a park when he was still a kid.

I remember seeing some of his personal pictures in SW Insider magazine a while back. So he's got some of THE best SW kid pictures of any of us!

Are those rings painted on or just like really shallow?
