1992 Limited Edition Yoda Statue (Edition of 9,500) Personal Gift from George Lucas: A rare and highly desirable collectible from the galaxy far, far away, this is a limited-edition standing Yoda statue, produced in 1992 in an edition of 9,500 pieces, and distributed exclusively as a personal gift from George Lucas to select collaborators, studio executives, and industry insiders. Depicting Yoda in a standing pose, clad in his traditional Jedi robes with his walking stick in hand, the statue captures the legendary Jedi Master with remarkable detail and quiet authority. Sculpted with precision and care, this piece reflects the wisdom, strength, and enduring legacy of one of Star Wars’ most iconic characters. This particular statue comes from the personal collection of producer Mark Canton, a longtime figure in the film industry and collaborator on major studio productions. These statues were never made available for retail sale and were given only to individuals closely associated with Lucasfilm or George Lucas himself, making them incredibly scarce in private collections. A perfect centerpiece for any Star Wars display, this statue stands as a symbol of both personal gratitude from George Lucas and the timeless legacy of the Star Wars universe. Acrylic case: 29 1/2 x 21 x 18 1/2 in. (74.9 x 53.3 x 47 cm.) Provenance: The Mark Canton Collection — From the Acclaimed Producer & Former Studio Chief Behind 300, Power, and Overseeing Iconic Franchises Including Batman, Ghostbusters II, and Lethal Weapon
