L-hand 980
The L-hand 980 was a prosthetic hand model produced by Antilles BioGen (ABG). The model was used by medical droid 2-1B to replace Luke Skywalker's hand after it was lost on Bespin.
ABG later discontinued the arm that went with the hand, but 2-1B suggested the J2J model prosthetic arm from Organa Organics.
Behind the scenes
The L-hand 980, Antilles BioGen, the J2J, and Organa Organics were all first mentioned by a bitter 2-1B in Star Wars Insider 51 in the Dear 2-1B column.
Patrick Ginter was the model for L-hand 980.
