    Ain't that cool fact.

    Ok so what perhaps many of diehard fans don't know about ANH is that Wuhrs bar parts got turned into IG-88 for ESB.

    Cool uh?

    Ain't it cool,

    Ok for those who never noticed, but when Luke and Obi-wan are talking in Obi-wans hut on the back wall is a jacket and then it disappears, then I believe reappears but not sure. So watch for it!

    Cool uh?

    Yes it is, it's a shame he had to swap from his luxury living on Coruscant

    Okay, I knew about the bar equipment being turned into IG-88's head, but I'd never realized that it was a combustion chamber from a turbojet engine!

    Nice one!!

    I think this is a very interesting idea for a thread. I love finding out these thingies with inconsistencies, reused props, all that stuff. I think you should keep it as one thread though, and maybe see if a mod can merge your IG-88 thread with this one and then continue from there.

    I think there may have been another thread like this already too, but it might be dead by now. Looking forward to other contributions to the list of factoids.

    I like Obi Wan's hut, it's a simple/nice and silent place for a retirement home.

    I guess Tatooine would return into a retirement planet for all species at the end of their days.

    It would be a logical secret hideout for Luke after the events of ROTJ.

    Maybe Qui Gon's ghost was haunting the house and the evidence is that Jacket moving by itself lol :)

    Well it was turned into a tourist attraction after the war was over a cathar named Myhr Rho rebuilt the homestead after the roof caved it became what was later called the Skywalker tour revealing many locations that shaped the rebel alliance as it was known then, Leia was lured there by the force in 9 aby to find it ransacked possibly by a tuskan raid all that was left was Kenobi's workbench & a datapad, Luke returned to it in 12 aby to try to connect with his former mentor through the force to no avail, it was never visited again & was buried by a sandstorm.
