Chewbacca's bowcaster, used in the original Star Wars trilogy, has sold for 768,600 dollars (£593,985) at auction, smashing its estimate.
The Wookie's weapon, which was used in films including 1980's Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, and described by auctioneers Propstore as "one of the rarest Star Wars hero props in existence", beat its estimate of between 250,000 to 500,000 US dollars (£198,000 to £397,000).
