Does anybody know for certain if the bulb clamp (bunny ears) was fixed in place, or left to wobble back and forth?
For my static prop, I put a couple drops of superglue between the tabs and rivet. I can still loosen them if I wanted to, with acetone.
I thought I read somewhere that in one of the scenes, you can hear the 'clank' of the bulb clamp against the saber when Luke does something.
cool! :thumbsupI think that's when Luke is holding it by the D-Ring and is telling Ben he can give him a ride.
I don't, I feel like I've seen a behind the scenes picture of Mark "hanging out" and the bulb release was tilted - so loose.
But all the publicity photos the bulb release is centered, it's more appealing, so I'm assuming they set it in place after it got annoying haha
Mine? I set mine, but I didn't touch the rivet. I stuck two chunks of pencil eraser, covered in electrical tape, in both corners deep in the emitter between the tube and bulb clamp corner. It hasn't moved since, and I can take them out if I change my mind.
