While it was obvious that it was a puppet, I had no idea how large the original filming prop was! Years back, we first saw the prop in the famed Archives it just seemed massive! With that in mind, we developed this scaled version to create a unique option for collectors who didn’t have the space for our 1:1 replica.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe spent a considerable amount of time hands-on with that original prop puppet, over the course of several visits, using photography, color matching and 3D laser-scanning to help with our recreation of the original artifact for this edition. An added asteroid base, dynamic posing and removable miniature Millennium Falcon give this edition its own identity.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe prototyped this piece entirely in our New York studio, crafting the mold and paint masters here. I’m proud of the work of Regal Robot’s lead digital artist, Christian Maggi, who prepared this scan for production and our development specialist Max Frey, who did on the paint mastering for this project. The end result is a static resin replica that I believe really captures the feeling of looking at the original prop and the dynamics of the scene from the movie!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe’re all so proud of this special prop replica, and I can’t wait to see it in the collections of discerning prop and statue fans and Star Wars collectors!” – Tom Spina (Regal Robot founder)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor sale to US based customers only\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Regal Robot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44038660653171,"sku":"SW526","price":1899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0153\/7422\/1412\/files\/space_slug_signature_edition_prop_replica_01.jpg?v=1761670005","url":"https:\/\/secretcompassonline.com\/products\/star-wars-the-empire-strikes-back-space-slug-1-1-prop-replica-dual-signature-edition","provider":"Secret Compass","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
