A New Hope was revolutionary in special effects, and one of the coolest scenes is the final battle of the Death Star. And now you can have a piece of the scene with you right from this final battle.

The piece is approximately 60 centimeters wide, 17 centimeters high, and is beautifully carved. According to eBay, the piece was thrown away after production, but was saved by a former Industrial Lights and Magic employee who eventually sold it to professional collector Steve Grad in 2014.

And now it’s the sale: the auction started last week, but there’s still time to try. But I’ll let you know, prepare your pockets because it was already up to $6,000 (dollars), that is, very salty, but fair for a piece of this rarity.

You can find more information on eBay’s website as well as see how to bid, just click here.
