STAR WARS: EPISODE I - THE PHANTOM MENACE (1999) - Obi-Wan Kenobi's (Ewan McGregor) Short-Bladed Lightsaber - Obi-Wan Kenobi's (Ewan McGregor) short-bladed lightsaber from George Lucas' Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. Jedi Padawan Obi-Wan wielded his signature blue lightsaber throughout the film, including during his and Qui-Gon Jinn's (Liam Neeson) duel with Darth Maul (Ray Park).

This lightsaber hilt features a ridged resin and metal handgrip and a rounded pommel cap, all painted silver-color, black, red, and gold-color to simulate a metallic finish. Unlike the full-length aluminum blades, this hilt is inset with a half-length plastic lightsaber "blade" painted green ito be digitally overlaid with VFX in shots where Kenobi swung his saber. Multiple behind-the-scenes images show McGregor wielding this style of saber. This hilt is missing a charging port or waist clip, suggesting it was built exclusively for dueling sequences. It exhibits visible scuffing, exposing resin throughout the grip and pommel, and the blade's tip is chipped. Dimensions: 22" x 2" x 2" (56 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm)

Estimate: $30,000 - 60,000
