This is part of my ongoing coverage of San Diego Comic-Con 2019. 2019 is the first year that Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! exhibited pieces from the collection in the main exhibit hall.\u00a0 On display was the lightsaber prop purchased from Profiles in History and attributed to use by Luke Skywalker in The Empire Strikes Back<\/em>, the Han Solo blaster from Return of the Jedi<\/em> purchased from Julien’s Auctions, and a Hoverboard from Back To The Future Part<\/em> II and a bullwhip from Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade<\/em>.\u00a0 In that I cataloged the Han Solo blaster for Julien’s, I noticed that it appears to have since been damaged (and as you’ll note in the photos, the handle of the blaster is held in place by some gum-like material in this display.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
