Who doesn't love old Star Wars set photos?

[Trallis]

Saw this on my Google+ feed this morning.
I know we've all seen most of these a million times, but I really enjoyed seeing them all together. I forgot about quite a few of them and there are a few I've actually never seen. Enjoy!

It's only fitting that my first post be about Star Wars. Thanks for the link to the photo's. Like you, I hadn't seen a bunch of these. Especially the ones of the cast cutting up.

Looks like dead rebel soldiers for the part when the AT-AT blasts the gun turret.

Some nice ones I found The New Jedi Order • View topic - Return of the Jedi Pre production pictures

Looking at these makes me yearn for the days of practical SFx. Right now I'm thinking about that "Before & After" picture of Lucas: surrounded by all the wonderful creations of the OT, and sitting in front of a green screen :cry

Yeah, all future behind the scenes and special effects books will look like this...

Here is the star ship

That picture kind of irritates me because there were actually more physical models built for the prequels than the OT. It's not really an accurate comparison.
There's just more of everything in the prequels. In addition to all the physical models there are loads of CG ones as well.
