Making Tracks: Propstore - Boba Fett 'Empire' rifle event

Welcome to a very special episode of Making Tracks as Mark Newbold travels to the Cumberland Hotel, near Marble Arch in London for an up-close look at Boba Fett’s Hero Screen, Photo, and Serial Number-Matched EE-3 Carbine Rifle from The Empire Strikes Back, which heads to the Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction - London Winter 2025 on 5th - 7th December in London. A small fan audience (along with the worlds media) were invited to see this unique prop for ourselves, along with other amazing items including an original Ralph McQuarrie painting, C-3PO's hand, a stormtrooper rifle, Obi-Wan Kenobi's lightsaber from The Phantom Menace, a 12" Luke Skywalker model from 'Empire' and an Rebel pilots helmet. Mark spoke with Propstore owners Brandon Alinger and Stephen Lane, as well as fellow attendee and ILM and Skywalker Sound writer Jamie Benning from the Filmumentaries podcast on this special episode of Making Tracks.
