Default Luke's saber gets $200K

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - A little piece of Jedi history comes at a high price: $200,600 to be exact.

That's what a Luke Skywalker light saber used by Mark Hamill in the original "Star Wars" movie sold for at an auction in Beverly Hills on Friday. A saber used by Darth Vader sold for $118,000, according to Profiles in History, which held the auction.

Besides elegant swords of pure energy, other items from the Stars Wars franchise that sold at the auction included Luke's X-Wing flight suit for $70,080 and the original Stormtrooper blaster used in the movie, which sold for $56,500.

A Chewbacca face mask brought in $50,150, as did Yoda's walking cane.
