Re: [T3] type 3 PARTS in movies


I had gone to the Star Wars expo awile back and saw alot of the props used
in the movies first hand. Like their radios, guns, ships and the like. All
they are is boxes with pieces of whatever glued to them. Sewing machine
parts, car parts, if it was mechanical and looked the part they used it. So
It dosnt amaze me that there is a T3 part on the wall in a scene.
