 Hey everybody, it's Brian Bishop with The Verge and we are here in San Diego Comic Con at the booth for Prop Shop. Now you might be wondering why I have a Kylo Ren lightsaber in my hand. That's because Prop Shop is the prop shop that basically made the props for Star Wars and the Force Awakens. It's making the props for Rogue One. It's making the props for all the upcoming Star Wars films that are going to be coming for the next 5, 10, 20 years. And what's cool is they have something called the Ultimate Studio Edition where they basically take the props, replicate them the exact same way that they made the originals, age them, weather them, and then sell them for high end collectors. There is Kylo Ren's lightsaber, there is Rey's lightsaber, there is Poe's helmet, there's Finn's helmet. Basically everything cool you could want from the Force Awakens you can buy. All of these things are individually numbered and each prop has a chip inside of it to prove that it's authentic. So this is the Ultimate Studio Edition of Rey's lightsaber from the Force Awakens. These lightsabers were originally back in the day made from Graflex flash handles and here you have the entire body of the Graflex flash handle replicated, clamp, the grips, the D-ring, cobalt D-ring here in the end. And it's all like incredibly detailed and you can tell this is from the Force Awakens by a couple of things actually. In Force Awakens there was this clamp that had no printing on it. In the other movies they basically had a piece of foil tape stuck around the Graflex logo and also these grips are actually a little bit shorter on the bottom than they were back in the original films. But it's an incredible amount of detail both in the way that things are put together but also the weathering. And that's what's really kind of spectacular about this because not only does Props. Shop make these items, they then go back and take the ones that were used on screen and scan them again to see all the detail in terms of weathering, paint, smudges, scratches, all that kind of stuff. So they can then treat the newly created objects that they sell to look just like the thing that came off the set. So I'm going to try to not break this. This is obviously Darth Vader's melted helmet. This is a little bit intimidating to hold, I'm not going to lie. You know it's the scene in the film where Kylo Ren is kind of looking over it and saying I will finish what you started. This thing was originally sculpted to kind of like the influence to look like the skull. You can definitely see that. And this item is basically then 3D printed, the final miscan. And there's this incredible detail. I mean there's like the wires coming in here, there's the you know the tusks, the luno tusks. It's really just kind of an incredibly detailed and frightening piece of work. Again, these things are very very limited and they are not cheap because you're paying for this detail and this craftsmanship. But my god, this is kind of breathtaking. So I'm standing here with the latest addition to the Ultimate Studio Edition line. It is a panel from the Millennium Falcon. You know they obviously had to recreate the Falcon for the new movies and this was pulled from that. These machines, these switches were all kind of like machine by hand. The electronics inside, they all are functioning and they work. It's kind of great. If you're in the Falcon and you know like I'm looking at like this, it's to the left of Han Solo. I'm not so much Han Solo. But it's pretty great, this kind of interactive thing you can see it being on your wall and this nerding outlet is there and it's pretty remarkable to view this interactive prop that's so familiar if you've seen the movies. This thing basically does not have a release date yet. It's going to come out sometime this year. There's no information yet about how much it's going to cost either. With so many more movies coming out and with returning to older time frames and to new time frames, it's going to be very very busy and if you want to get the most authentic licensed crop possible, you're going to be talking to CropShop.

 Hey everybody, it's Brian Bishop with The Verge and we are here in San Diego Comic Con
 at the booth for Prop Shop.
 Now you might be wondering why I have a Kylo Ren lightsaber in my hand.
 That's because Prop Shop is the prop shop that basically made the props for Star Wars
 and the Force Awakens.
 It's making the props for Rogue One.
 It's making the props for all the upcoming Star Wars films that are going to be coming
 for the next 5, 10, 20 years.
 And what's cool is they have something called the Ultimate Studio Edition where they basically
 take the props, replicate them the exact same way that they made the originals, age them,
 weather them, and then sell them for high end collectors.
 There is Kylo Ren's lightsaber, there is Rey's lightsaber, there is Poe's helmet, there's
 Finn's helmet.
 Basically everything cool you could want from the Force Awakens you can buy.
 All of these things are individually numbered and each prop has a chip inside of it to prove
 that it's authentic.
 So this is the Ultimate Studio Edition of Rey's lightsaber from the Force Awakens.
 These lightsabers were originally back in the day made from Graflex flash handles and
 here you have the entire body of the Graflex flash handle replicated, clamp, the grips,
 the D-ring, cobalt D-ring here in the end.
 And it's all like incredibly detailed and you can tell this is from the Force Awakens
 by a couple of things actually.
 In Force Awakens there was this clamp that had no printing on it.
 In the other movies they basically had a piece of foil tape stuck around the Graflex logo
 and also these grips are actually a little bit shorter on the bottom than they were back
 in the original films.
 But it's an incredible amount of detail both in the way that things are put together but
 also the weathering.
 And that's what's really kind of spectacular about this because not only does Props.
 Shop make these items, they then go back and take the ones that were used on screen and
 scan them again to see all the detail in terms of weathering, paint, smudges, scratches, all
 that kind of stuff.
 So they can then treat the newly created objects that they sell to look just like the thing
 that came off the set.
 So I'm going to try to not break this.
 This is obviously Darth Vader's melted helmet.
