New GMA behind-the-scenes Empire Footage

[LOM]

Found this a short while ago, new footage!

Rare and exclusive, behind the scenes look at 'The Empire Strikes Back'

There is no better holiday present than a look back at 'The Empire Strikes Back.'

Sorry for the bad screen caps but here's the gist of it:
A bit of the Hoth saber

Footage of the window saber:

And even more extended footage from the rehearsal:

There were some more good frames in there, but it's hard to pause it at the right moment.


Really like how more bts footage has been coming out recently, this was a fun watch - quite a lot of stuff besides sabers too!

edit: Looks like someone beat me actually:

If I didn't know any better, I would say this saber has gaping countersunk holes with no bolts in them. Can't be right...

Or some material stuck to the Gralex upper?

Mark is rocking those flares.

My immediate thought was that the upper portion looks wrapped in aluminum tape - Maybe to cover the bolts, and what we're seeing is a reflection off the foil tape from being raised in that area?
