I did the severed walrus arm shot along with Gary Kurtz in early 1977. Several days before we were to do the insert Gary brought the sleeve with him but not the correct hand.

Much thanks for all that info. elvin.

Couple of questions -

Gary Kurtz brought it several days before the shot? Did neither of you notice at the time, or was it not possible to organise the correct hand during that time?

Also, although it looks to me like Obi-wan swipes twice in the footage, why was the 'Walrus Guy's arm shown on the floor in the first place rather than 'Freaky Nose's human-like arm, considering 'Freaky Nose' had been the one who was actually holding the blaster in the first place?...

And if you've seen adywan's 'Revisited' version (in motion preferably), what do you think of it?
