ever fetched for a prop<\/a> used in a Star Wars film, according to the auction house.<\/p>\nNow, someone can buy the saber that did the severing.<\/p>\n
A Darth Vader lightsaber used in the climactic duel in Cloud City, where he tells Skywalker “I am your father,” is among the highlights of the Ultimate Star Wars Auction to be held by Heritage Auctions on Nov. 12.<\/p>\n
The Vader saber, also used in Return of the Jedi, is expected to fetch at least $1 million US. It is one of more than two dozen lightsaber props that will be up for sale at the auction that spans Star Wars Episodes I through IX, as well as other films and TV shows from the galaxy George Lucas created.<\/p>\n
