- Lot Description
A box of vintage (circa late 1960s/early 1970s) model kit parts that are from the same batch used by Colin Cantwell to create the original Star Wars (20th Century, 1977) prototype models in 1974/1975 for George Lucas. From the collection of Cantwell, who was among the first approached by Lucas to work on the original "Star Wars" film back in 1974. Cantwell's most notable contribution was working closely with Lucas on the spaceship designs for Star Wars : A New Hope (now known as Episode IV). Cantwell was provided with “Copy #4” of the screenplay, then titled “Adventures of The Starkiller (episode one), The Star Wars." Cantwell is known as the creator of the first and original prototype models and designs of the X-Wing, Y-Wing, Tie Fighter, Star Destroyer, Death Star, Landspeeder, Sandcrawler, and Millennium Falcon as well as the T-16 Skyhopper that Luke Skywalker is seen playing with in the film. This lot contains hundreds of leftover “kit bash” model parts from the original batch that was used for creating those original "Star Wars" prototypes. Most of the parts were sourced from a wide variety of late 1960s/very early 1970s (pre-1975) model kits. The German model kit box holding these parts has a personal message and autograph from Cantwell dated 7/14/2014 asserting these facts: “I built the first Star Wars models (X Wing, Tie Fighter, Y Wing, Death Star, etc.) from this actual batch! Enjoy!”
