LEGO Star Wars fans and Mark Hamill have fun with Luke’s hand
Star Wars actor Mark Hamill shared an image on Twitter, that led to LEGO fans proving to him that the set he was posting about is real.
Fans have fun mocking up imagined LEGO Star Wars sets, with one of the most fun being Luke Skywalker’s Hand and Lightsaber, with the two items originally intended to feature prominently at the beginning of The Force Awakens. Mark Hamill – Luke Skywalker himself – tweeted the mocked-up image to the delight of his followers.
Hamill said: “Someone tell me this isn’t a real #StarWars toy. PLEASE. ? #LegoOfMyHand #WorstToyEVER”
Twitter responded to demonstrate that this LEGO set is indeed real…
