It was the same prop built for Empire. They sealed it up in plastic, and put it in storage until Jedi went into production.
Why they didn't use it for at least part of the rebel hangar sequence baffles me. That wasn't the best matte painting ILM ever did.
I bet all the sand from the sandstorm scene really wrecked the prop. It's rough and irritating and it gets everywhere. Not like CGI. With CGI, everything is soft and smooth.

Oh, really? So when Joseph Stalin died in 1953, the USSR just fell apart within a couple of years, did it? Or do you think that if Hitler was killed in say 1941, the National Socialists would have just called it a day and capitulated? (Without Hitler's egomania, they may actually have had a better chance at winning the war). Or you can go even further back; When Caesar was murdered, was the Roman Republic automatically restored?
Re: Stalin: he didn't found the Soviet Union, and the post-Stalin USSR was very different (de-Stalinization took place).

And that's just lazy.
Maybe I will contribute with UL'ing the mix to Myspleen once it's all finished.
So, uh, who volunteered to do the work for you?

Am I the only one who understands how the Empire died with Palpatine in ROTJ?
Do you want to explain that? Because the EU perspective of a bureaucracy and military so large that it can function without its head for a long time is pretty convincing. It's not like Palpatine invented the Empire; he just militarized the existing government, and that military (and cultural change) don't disappear overnight.

at last all the production notes from the original trilogy :-)
all the production notes? Hah. I doubt that. Where does it say that?
Also, why did you post this in the ESB:R thread? Not relevant!

Yeah, no one's going to like that idea round these parts. Especially not adywan who I believe has already said he won't do it (though I might be making this up - either way he won't be doing it I'm sure).
Hey! Logical person! We don't take kindly to people who use logic round here!
It's only logical if you accept the PT as canon for Revisited.

Replace Palpatine's ROTJ advisors with Sly Moore and Mas Amedda.
Show what happened to the Empire at the end of ROTJ.
Just curious: have all 6 movies been color-corrected?
I think the ROTJ advisers ought to remain human. We never see any other non humans working for the Empire. I think adding any in would undermine the whole xenophobic, human-only "master race" vibe, which makes the Empire and the Emperor seem as evil as they do.
I really think there's room for them to be added. But never at the sacrifice of any of the grumpy dudes.
