IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO CONSIGN YOUR PROPS!

Your consignments are always welcome, and very much appreciated. All consignments are a flat 20% commission.
All buyer's premiums are also a flat 20%. These rates will never increase.
This lot is for the entire collection of LIGHTSABERS you see in the photo. All are different! I show all in each lot as provenance, but this lot takes all.
These are all OOAK, though in various stages of being completed or destroyed. These are Prototypes at minimum but a few are possibly Screen Used Lightsabers from the original production of STAR WARS EPISODE 1, THE PHANTOM MENACE and STAR WARS EPISODE 2, ATTACK OF THE CLONES! I believe the Anakin Skywalker and the two OBI-WAN KENOBIS may be SCREEN USED! The Qui-Gon Jinn is also complete, and shows signs of possible use as another character. 7 Light Sabers in all!
This one lot takes all you see as the entire collection, and takes precedent over the individual lots to follow! A winner here will skip those! See the following lots for individual items up close along with better descriptions.

The weight, materials, and quality of construction tell a trained eye that these are indeed authentic! They are not only design demos, but some are even functionality demos with gas jet nozzles and igniters.
Ask yourself these same valid questions I ask myself? Why would replica LIGHTSABERS have wires coming out of them? Why would they have gas jets and igniters? Who would, or could go so far as to make such intricate replicas that don't even look like the SCREEN USED PROPS?
Though some are very close, these all appear to be concepts, and do not match Screen Used examples exactly. Not like replicas do. The OBI-WAN sure is close though, and looks to have been SCREEN USED!

These were all obtained as the collection directly from the original production of STAR WARS EPISODE 1 THE PHANTOM MENACE during the filming of STAR WARS EPISODE 2, ATTACK OF THE CLONES! They are not replicas, or fan made!
Any serious bidders are welcome to view these in person if you like, but please do not ask me to send a bunch of photos. The photos don't lie, but seeing these in person makes all the difference in the World.

DISCLAIMER! I am the biggest skeptic in the prop collecting world, and the enemy to the Illegal Unlicensed Replica makers. I have scoured over these, and have not found anything that tells me these are fakes. I believe them! You all know me, and this should say something!
