Original X-Wing Model from Star Wars: Episode IV!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zqz05dYFYu8 - 13 minute video at Adam Savage’s Tested YouTube channel
 

“Adam visits Prop Store ahead of their upcoming Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction to get a rare up-close look at one of the few surviving X-Wing miniatures from the making of Star Wars: Episode IV. Inspecting the paint finish and preserved surface of this gorgeous filming miniature is like a looking into the early days of the ILM model shop, with every detail revealing first hand the care and attention that went into the first Star Wars movie.”
 

I loved watching this, and the interest and joy on Adam’s face. Also his memories and skills from when he worked at ILM in the later 90s and early 2000s.
