It wasn't in the final cut, but if look look at the full shot, you can tell it was Ewan's real hair and not the wig used in the pick-ups. He had shaved his head for 'Black Hawk Down'.
New model for OWK three holes saber... (New pics on pg 13. 11-17-2024)
- Thread starter Anakin Starkiller
- Start date
The resin belt hanger was used at all different stages of production:
It was even used in some publicity stills:
I wonder if they added a new emitter cap because by 2001 it was entirely covered with rust (this is what happened to the Qui-Gon hero). So maybe they made an aluminum cap to cover the steel washer in case of close up shots.
Maybe they replaced it with one with no hole for the closeup in TPM...
Deleted scene. Qui-Gon examines the saber after he destroys the STAP that's chasing Obi-Wan in the forest. The saber was shorted out when Obi-Wan was in the water after he exited the droid landing ship he'd stowed aboard.
That's why he's seen running away from the STAP--his saber isn't working.
I would also double down on that being the TPM saber. Unlike most movies where they always start from scratch remaking props from previous films they did keep some original props. The Jedi belt pouches are the same through all 3 movies for example.
Dressing a Galaxy book scan has a high res pic of the EP2 saber, you have brighten it up in PS though.
anyone have a high res pic of this? I think it was from EP2 promo
here is a picture of the S&P I haven't seen people share before

That's what I was saying, upthread. They spruced the prop up to reuse in AOTC (including a replacement for a rusted washer), but mostly ended up using the chromed resin copies.
This is from a photo used on the cover of an issue of Premiere Magazine, before TPM was released. In fact, it was the first time I noticed that young Obi-Wan would NOT have the Alec Guinness/MK 1 design in the film.
Ah, found it. For some reason it made it into my EP2 refs.
Are there any other shots from this display?! The Anakin is there! Message me if you’d like, to keep the thread on trackI would also double down on that being the TPM saber.

Do you happen to know what MR used to make their AOTC Obi? One of the resin hilts?
I remember talking about this with SD back in the day. For the aotc LE saber, Steve told me that they based it on the chrome resin stunt bc the metal hero was lost. But, years later they produced the EE and I once again asked SD about it (he used to host a rpf prop party out in King Of Prusia PA where we'd show off builds, go out to dinner, then head back to his place to see his collection in his basement) and he told me that there was a metal hero on hand that they could reference. So, what I always thought happened was, when it became EE time, SD went into the archives and referenced the Salt Shaker, but then modified the design to incorporate all the particular elements that Jedivic (circa 2002 Lightsaberworld.com | Welcome) had told everyone about in the creation of his saber. In order to make the most ideal replica. (ps. The secret pics are hidden behind the moon on the second page of Jedivic's page)

There are 3 VERY mislabeled blasters in that display!

Any more shots of the Anakin AOTC!?!?
yes, only 1 though. I'll PM it to you so that it doesn't clutter up this thread
I think the cropped saber is from the TPM photo set they reused for that page. Higher resolution pic
Looking on YouTube I can’t find it, is there actual video footage of this?
