Congrats man, I know how you feel:-) When I found out what the sabers were back in '97 I went to a local camera market which happened every few months. I found a graflex but the guy wouldn't part it from the camera. But I walked around and found an MPP in absolutely MINT condition. paid £20 for it (about 30 bucks). I was determined to get the Graflex so went back again next time and the guy finally agreed to sell the flash on it's own. Walking out of that place with a vintage was sooo cool;-) Finally I had Luke's saber;-) Enjoy your find!
@@rpkcustoms yeah, very lucky. A month or so after I contacted an antique camera dealer in London and they had a Graflex and an MPP so I got those as well!
I converted this one to ESB since it wasn't in the best condition. I found another vintage soon after and that one was in near mint condition so I converted that to ANH, the video on that one is on my channel too
Congratulations! If you have rust issues you want to use naval jelly to dissolve it, if you have green corrosion like I had on this one you want to use lime away and if it's just a little dirty you can just use some wd40 and a few q-tips to clean the dirt off. Good luck!!
Nice! Live long and prosper!

That's badass! Love hearing stories like this. I found a Heiland when I was a kid (still have it) but never found a Graflex or an MPP. Your lucky!

Really enjoyed watching this, you can hear the excitement and joy in your voice 👍
Thank you 🙏 I was on cloud 9 when I made the video, it was hard to stay on track 😂

Ahhhh, you gotta turn it into a new hope saber dude!!! You have to!!
