Star Destroyer Model Prop from Star Wars IV- A New Hope. The one that chased Leia at the beginning when she was on"a diplomatic mission." It took a close up camera to make it look like a mile long ship I'm sure!

Photographed at the Wichita Exploration Place when the Star Wars exhibit was on display; Summer 2012 Wichita, Kansas.

My favorite capital ship from any series! :D

A person with whom I'm acquainted is building a replica of the 8-foot model from TESB: [link]

Funny, it looks smaller than the one I saw at the exhibit in Belgium. The bastard had to be a good 2.50 meters in length!

It's the Devestator model from A New Hope. Lorne Peterson, the chief model maker from all three movies, said they built that one and thought that they wouldn't have to build it again for TESB, but then they realized that they'd need a more detailed model since it would be on screen a heck of a lot more, so they built the "8-footer" Avenger Star Destroyer for TESB.

They could have had, and probably had multiple models of alot of the ships. They had at least two Millennium falcon models on display (I'll be posting those shortly)

Looking at it, I doubt that itīs that one from A New Hope, I mean look at that central head structure (donīt know if it was the tractor beam array or the comm phalanx)... that came up with The Empire Strikes Back.... however I do not know if they rebuilt that model, if they modded it for the later episodes nevermind...
