Star Wars fan? Get yourself a Graflex lightsaber!

This is the pride and joy of my growing Star Wars collection. Among several sideshow figures, comics and books, this one really stands out.

I got lucky and bought it at a Norwegian online shop similar to Ebay. People peddle their used junk, and more than often charge too much for too little. But sometimes a gem present itself:


The Graflex Lightsaber is the weapon Luke Skywalker used in A New Hope, and The Empire Strikes Back, and i got one cheap!


This prop was made from the grip of a Graflex camera flashing unit. I got the finished modified version, i don`t know who did the job, but it looks really great, and movie accurate. For those into customising, you can add a soundboard and leds into it to make it more awesome. It opens pretty easily.


Send me an email or comment if you want to share your Star Wars props.
