A “blaster” used by Harrison Ford‘s Han Solo character in “Return of the Jedi” has sold at auction in New York for $550,000.
The weapon was offered up by previous owner, James Schoppe, the film’s art director. He was nominated for an Oscar for his work on the film and put about 40 other items up for auction including an Ewok axe and plans for Jabba the Hutt’s ship.
The Ewok axe went for $11,250 and another blaster prop brought in $90,624.
The most expensive piece of Star Wars memorabilia ever sold? An R2-D2 droid that sold last year for $2.76-million.
