Science Meets Imagination Exhibit Pictures

[Paracord Junky]

finally got to the STAR WARS exhibit at Space and Rocket Center yesterday, and took over 200 pictures without knowing it. They mislabeled their Vader costume and i'm sure their Stormtrooper isn't an original, but let's focus on the important thing: I GOTS A BUNCH OF CLOSE-UP SHOTS OF PROP DETAILS.

first up is the Hoth binoculars:

liar, liar, pants on fire on Mustafar

and now the obligatory reveal pics(tried to get some new angles)
it's the EpIII helmet of course; The Force forbid we ever get to see the Jedi reveal again.

neck

and one crappy pic of the texture inside the dome

i really tried to get more shots inside the neck and mask, but the case was against a wall and i couldn't really see what i was basically shooting blind.

next up, a Jawa...

Weapons

Thermal Detonator!

Palpatine's saber

Obi-wan's ROTS saber

Boba Fett's blaster

they also had Mace Windu's, Count dooku's, and some more blasters. if i go back i'll get pics of those.
they didn't have any OT sabers, which kinda ticked me off.

[Paracord Junky]

the man with no lines(not counting the ones going into his brain).

 

[Paracord Junky]

after 30 years i bet they smell bad on the inside and the outside.

i just have to say the amount of detail they put into a studio model is pretty amazing.

wonderful girl.

just a door.

and...i think that's it. i'm gonna go back again today before they close, so if anyone want a certain shot of a particular piece let me know.

they also had:
droideka
ROTS wookiee weapons
Lil' Annie costume
sand crawler
Naboo blaster
count dookuu saber
mace windu saber
general grevious statuette
grevious head sculpt
droid puppet show
padme's white spandex(can't recall)
star destroyer
tatooine apartments section
rebel medical ship model
droid battle tank(TPM)
and in the gift shop was the old vader statue that looks nothing like vader if you pay attention and wasn't worth ten large back then let alone whatever they go for now. huuuuuuuuhoooooooo.

Great pix!

Some of the stuff were in Sweden a few years back. The stormy is a tour suit (well the one used in Sweden was, and it looks like the same).

You got all the goodies! We got ROTJ reveal though.
