Note other lots in the auction may close on June 30th or July 1st. A Sarlacc Pit tooth from Richard Marquand's Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Jabba the Hutt (Larry Ward) sentenced Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) and Han Solo (Harrison Ford) to be thrown into the Great Pit of Carkoon, where the fanged Sarlacc within would slowly digest them over 1,000 years. This long, hooked tooth is one of several made by Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) for the Sarlacc set in Yuma, Arizona. It is constructed of gray foam coated with urethane and hand-painted brown and green. The tooth exhibits some cracking to the urethane and exposed foam at the base from age and production use, but remains in good overall condition. Dimensions: 18" x 3" x 4" (45.75 cm x 7.75 cm x 10.25 cm) Estimate: $3,500 - 5,500
