GEEK ALERT! SKYWALKER'S LIGHTSABER UP FOR GRABS!

Yeah, for normal folks this is a ho-hum item, but for those who live and breathe the Star Wars brand, it’s like taking Princess Leia to your senior prom. The son of the prop maker from the groundbreaking film is selling off Luke’s original lightsaber via U.K. auction house Specialist Auctions.com (Click on “Film Props”). The press release goes on (and on) about how this particular lightsaber came into being (Speaking of geeks. Ahem.), but we’re pretty certain this is the real deal. And the site also has a “Snap It Up” price (Much like eBay’s “Buy it now” option) where one lucky buyer can take it home today for 30,000 pounds—which is about $55,000! We hope they understand this isn’t a REAL lightsaber. It’s a prop, folks.
