I'm not sure if it's baby Luke or young Anakin. I'd like to think it's Luke though because of the cuteness.

Hmmm!? Those tallies look familiar. Very Mandalorian. They're all about those victories over their enemies.

I'm in the process of reading Star Wars: Aftermath and was excited to read that a set of Mandalorian armor was found on Tatooine. The battle worn armor was in the possession of a group of Jawas. At first I thought it was Boba Fett's but it's never clarified where the armor was found. It's in a chest making me think someone buried it versus being recovered from Boba's corpse. Now what if Obi-Wan kept the armor with him after all this time? What if, in an attempt to let go of his past, he buried the armor? His final goodbye to Satine so to speak.

OMG, incredibly sad, poor Obi, the question is how did Obi Wan figure out he had a granddaughter? Was he happy? So many answers we will never get.

Alinger has also researched and written a handful of official Lucasfilm books on the “Star Wars” movies, which allowed him to peruse the studio’s costume archive and the personal files of “Return of the Jedi” producer Howard Kazanjian.

Alinger: Oh, it was great fun. If there’s one person you want to chat with about Luke Skywalker’s “Jedi” lightsaber, it’s him. When he described how they had to wear battery belts to create the the light beam, which was what they call a “practical” effect on the first movie, it was great to hear it from the horse’s mouth. It was great that he remembered it because we’re talking about 40 years ago, which is quite a long time.
Collectors Weekly: Why did Mark use Obi-Wan’s old lightsaber in the third movie instead of the original made from the Graflex flash gun?

Alinger: Luke had to use a different lightsaber because he lost the weapon when he lost his hand in “The Empire Strikes Back” fight with Vader. Howard Kazanjian had a lot of the production photos for “Jedi.” When we were researching the book, we found a contact sheet with photos from the very first day of filming “Jedi.” One image showed Mark Hamill on the sandstorm set—for a scene was cut from the movie—and he’s holding the lightsaber prop from “A New Hope” and “The Empire Strikes Back.” I don’t know exactly what happened. But it sure seems to me like someone brought out the old “Empire” lightsaber and then a decision was made right then and there that they needed a new prop because the “Empire” one fell into the Cloud City air shaft with Luke’s severed hand.
