'Star Wars' sabres up for auction

Los Angeles - The original light sabres used by Star Wars characters Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader are to be sold at auction at the end of July and could go for more than 140,000 dollars, according to the Los Angeles auction house Profiles in History. The iconic weapons will go up for sale with other memorabilia from the epic sci-fi series, including Luke Skywalker's orange X-Wing pilot jumpsuit, which is valued at 80,000 dollars, and Yoda's mask. But buyer beware. The sabres do not light up as they did on screen - their glowing appearance was all down to special effects. © dpa - Deutsche Presse-Agentur
