Original Star Wars Props
BigBadDaddyVader
This is my collection of pieces from the absolutely outstanding STAR WARS:EPISODE III:REVENGE OF THE SITH.
I do not have enough superlatives for how fantastic I thought this film was.Recaptured all the glory and sheer scale and ambition of the original trilogy while retaining the sense of fun,wonder and adventure.However it also managed to be a much more powerful film than many of the rest of the saga with the dark and bitter tale of Anakin's fall to the dark side.A simply awesome achievement.

SCREENUSED DARTH VADER'S MEDICAL DROID ARM
This is an arm of the FX-6 medical droid used in the Vader construction sequence at the end of ROTS.The FX-6 droid only had one arm with a claw so this can be matched as the one that attaches Vader's new right leg at the beginning of this sequence.I am just blown away to have a screenmatched piece from one of my favourite films and one of my favourite and in my opinion one of the most iconic and memorable Star Wars moments-the birth of Darth Vader as the monster in the armour.It is constructed of a lightweight resin but has fantastic detailing right down to the detailing on the screws on the claw joint in the arm.A simply amazing piece.
"Lord Vader-Can You Hear Me?"

SCREEN USED MUSTAFAR VADER IMMOLATION SET LAVA ROCK
From one of the most memorable and dramatic scenes throughout the saga this is a screen used ignited lava rock used on the small portion of set that was built for the final confrontation during Obi-Wan and Vader's epic duel on Mustafar.The piece is made of a foam material and has fantastic detailing,texture and colouring.The Mustafar set was largely destroyed after filming and few pieces of it remain.Portions were gifted to crew members after filming.This is a superb piece from one of the great Star Wars moments."You were the chosen one!"

PRODUCTION-MADE DARTH VADER LIGHTSABER
Unfinished during production this hilt had the grips and control box added by a previous owner.I intend to add clear grips and a clear control box to attempt to retain the look of the piece from production.A great piece as there are so few genuine Vader artifacts available.

PILOT HARNESS FROM FULL-SCALE SCREENUSED JEDI STARFIGHTER COCKPIT
Although this piece cannot be definitively matched to either Anakin or Obi-Wan's starfighter cockpit their cockpits were the only models with harnesses that matched this style as can be seen with the metal clasp and ridging on the belt.Plo Koon's starfighter cockpit did not have a harness or at least it did not have a harness that matched this.I am confident that this harness was used in either Anakin or Obi-Wan's starfighter cockpit in the opening battle over Coruscant.

PRODUCTION-MADE BATTLE DROID HAND
Production-made static Battle Droid hand.Unused on screen but a neat little piece considering so much of the droid army was obviously CGI.

PRODUCTION-USED CALL SHEET
Call-sheet used for the London reshoot pickups.Detailing the whole conflict between Windu and Anakin and Sidious and all the set,props and details needed for this hugely memorable scene in which Anakin finally pledges himself to the dark side and is dubbed Darth Vader by his new master.
