A rare "Star Wars" prop piece is up for sale at auction in the US. Luke Skywalker's DL-44 blaster used in the 1980 film "The Empire Strikes Back" is priced at a minimum bid of $200,000 or about AED 730,000. Auction house Nate D. Sanders said the prop gun, made of gray, brown and silver fiberglass, is still in its original filming condition. It’s believed to retain “its original flash suppressor and scope, though it does not - and never did - fire".
