Join David Mandel (Veep, Curb Your Enthusiasm) and Ryan Condal (Colony, House of the Dragon) on The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of podcast with Propstore’s Brandon Alinger for the first part of a deep dive into the lightsabers of Star Wars: A New Hope.
It’s not as clumsy or as random as a blaster. It’s an elegant weapon for a more civilized — yadda yadda. The iconic weapon of the Jedi Knight is certainly in the zeitgeist these days. In September, Darth Vader’s screen-matched hero fighting lightsaber will go under hammer at Propstore Auctions, a first for any screen-used piece in this very special category. To herald its coming, David and Ryan are joined by the person who probably knows more about the lightsabers of the original trilogy than anyone, Lucasfilm expert and COO of Propstore Los Angeles, Brandon Alinger. In Part 1 of this long and chunky deep-dive Brandon takes the guys through all the lightsabers of Star Wars: A New Hope. Come into our dark cave of knowledge. Your weapons — you will not need them.
