Star Wars Archive Collection Gaffi Stick Prop Replica!

Regal Robot's Star Wars Archive Collection and Replicas: regalrobot.com/custom-star-wa... (These replicas go on sale 2/15 at 12pm EST)
For the past year, Adam has been accumulating the components to begin assembling and building a Tusken Raider cosplay, so he was ecstatic when Regal Robot reached out to share their new prop replicas of the Gaffi Sticks as seen in Star Wars: A New Hope as well as The Mandalorian! Adam unboxes and reviews both these props, explains their differences, and marvels over their solid construction. Disclosure: This product was provided by the manufacturer for purposes of review.

at 1:26/1:27 you made an "ahahah" sound - was that Intentional because it wasnt far of a Tuskan yell!

[@RegalRobot]

Thank you, Adam and team, for such a wonderful review and for sharing the work that our studio does! The joy on your face in this video warms our hearts :)

[@wobblysauce]

Making a few extra never hurt nobody.

[@millenniumf1138]

You guys do phenomenal work, and it's always fun to poke around your site to see what cool stuff has been released!

[@RegalRobot]

@@millenniumf1138 thank you so much!

[@henryhollis4287]

The Totokia was carried mainly by inland tribes who fought in jungle, thus the shorter heavier club. Fighting was an important part of accumulating Mana (prestige) and one story associated with this weapon was that the point at the end was designed to kill with a blow to the head and that warriors often completed to see who could kill the most by using a measured blow which inflicted a hole into but did not crush the skull. It was ameasure of skill and courage. Vinaka Vaka Levu.

[@Evan-Gomes]

cool, appreciate you taking the time to explain!

[@khronokraze]

Cool! Maybe need one of those long musket style blaster rifles you see the Tusken Raiders also have? If you replicate a bantha to ride on..whoa, totally complete the look

[@mattypearl]

currently 27 but i grew up without a dad and a mom who always worked, but Adam and the mythbusters were always there to make me smile and teach me something new. As a HUGE star wars nerd too i’m so happy to see you continuing to follow your history and passion to this day. Thank you Mr Savage.

[@helltanner3722]

That weapon was first wielded by "Lela of the tribe suvea team " (correction Romana ). in a very old doctor who episode. The prop company had several weapons from early who that were reused in star wars even as recently as the maldallorian series.

[@starhawke380]

Hey, I watched the premier of those episodes live! Watch what you calling "very old"!! darn young whippersnappers calling everything old....

[@orangemanok5800]

My wife is Fijian and I'm a Star Wars nerd. I think we need one of these on our wall.

[@MysticJhn]

The metal spike end pieces of the stick reminds me of those old lawn dart toys we used to have (before they were deemed unsafe :P).

[@mujone]

Need to go to Regal Robot again and do another updated tour Adam. Love those guys over there. Great props!

[@LuckyJack99]

Love it ! Thx for the show and tell !

[@CollectorsEnabled]

Awesome review can’t wait to get this

[@ArcaneWolf9]

Someone needs to screen cap that moment of Adam raising up the Gaffa stick and rock it back and forth a few times for effect.

[@farfromdeathstar]

adam gives me a heart attack every time he handles and unboxes new products. 😅 not sure if value goes down or up when resold by adam lol i love the content like always!

[@p1rz666]

By the speed you unwrapped this tells how much you've been looking forward to it haha Love your vids Adam! Best wishes from Denmark :)

[@CptPatch]

Well, I'm glad you were able to get both a a convention version and a zombie bashing version.

[@trevors7646]

i found a perfectly crafted gaffi stick while hiking 30 years ago and still have it and use it as my everyday cane.

[@Dardrum]

Those gaffi sticks are beautiful, Regal robot does some great work

[@graefx]

Sometimes I interpret the cave like a TARDIS. Just infinite rooms and spaces that appear and disappear as needed. A mix between that an Narnia. Crawl through a cubby and tumble into an dimension made of card stock and drill bits.

[@starhawke380]

Regal Robot: So, we have a new pair of Gaffi sticks to release, how should we market them? Adam Savage: Hey Regal Robot, I need the specs on the Gaffi stick, can you help me out? Regal Robot: Massive Grinch smile for free marketing.

[@MatsJPB]

Ooo, I'd be really exited to see you make the full tusken suit and mask. I think they're awesome!

Or an adjoining space that we can visit.

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

Someone turned up on the UK antiques roadshow with a Fijian war club that looked just like the wooden part of your prop. It was absolutely amazing and also terrifying to see. Made from a super dense and heavy wood it was beautiful. The owner didn’t have much knowledge of the age or purpose of their artefact, and the roadshow’s expert was almost drooling with delight at being able to hold it. A great moment if you’re interested and can find that episode.

[@hisownsidekick]

Looking forward to seeing them weathered!

[@hellboy1976]

I had a real totokia (sp) with a welded steel blade on the end. Deadly as hell, and pretty hefty. These replicas are nice!

[@Left2livesurvive]

Adam Savage, the father, grandfather, uncle and relative we all want

[@baxtardboy]

Tusken mask would make a great one day build. Hope you use the methods you learned from the moon night costume.

[@chemgeektim]

Very cool!

[@adib396]

Adam, anyone ever mentioned your workshop is turning into the warehouse at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark?

[@Bad_Wolf_Media]

Regal Robot makes sincere pieces of art. They not going to be used by cosplayers (for one thing, the cost is fairly prohibitive for most people). That's not a knock - though certainly a touch of envy! - but just a comment that these aren't mass-market products. That's not the market Regal Robot is in. Just for touch of expectation-management for those who may be watching this. Beautifully done, Tom and crew!

[@stevefindlater302]

Agree, amazing stuff but $2k is far too rich for my blood sadly. One day, if my euromillions numbers come in 🤞🏼

[@ChrisSiddallMusic]

Very cool! I reckon when you come to make your display stand for them it should be out of Krayt Dragon bone!

[@durkadann2943]

this channel never ceases to entertain and disappoint me.

[@dogmaticpyrrhonist543]

I have one of ... the Fijian clubs. Now I feel I need to rewatch "that movie" cos I never noticed.

[@thedoneeye]

I actually laughed when you were tightening the spike on the resin version. That weird squeaking noise sounded like ducks quacking!!

[@brucelee3388]

The 'New Hope' version would be of questionable legality in Australia due to the welded metal end, which could actually be used as a mace. Different regulations in each State here. Traditionally the decoration of the wooden club end was human teeth embedded in the business end and sometimes the spike could be made from whale bones or teeth if the spike was broken off (or you were someone very important). The shape comes from it being the initial stage of a Pandanus palm that is sprouting near the water, seems as they grow up they frequently fall over and the main shoot grows curved to compensate. Somewhere I have the museum catalog with details of all the sorts of war clubs used in Fiji, back in the 'bad old days'.

[@13panda13]

Thank goodness the government treats you like children. They wouldnt want you Aussies arming yourselves.

[@treborrrrr]

How about crowbars, are you allowed to own those? Or maybe an axe? Fairly sure I could do some damage with one of those. Sometimes governments are pretty dumb. I'm not against regulating weapons, but some common sense has to be used I feel.

[@damientonkin]

@@treborrrrr you can own and use anything that there's a legitimate non-violent use for (even non-firearm weapons) but if you use them in a threatening manner in public you can be arrested. I used to take public transport to my martial arts lessons absolutely klanking with weapons and it was fine but if you take one out and start swinging it around we might have a problem.

[@treborrrrr]

@@damientonkin Could it not be argued that the non-violent use case here is cosplay/collecting in that case?

[@damientonkin]

@@treborrrrr absolutely, I live in Western Australia which is a little more permissive but if you can own a sword I can't see any issue with this asside from the potential cultural issues I talked about in another comment.

[@natebell4764]

I smell a one day build coming where Adam replicates the replicas.

[@ivyisle]

I was a raider for Halloween one year. The eye pieces we made from toilet paper rolls that we painted to look metal

[@GreyDevil]

I think for the purposes of going to a con i would be nervous of taking a resin prop since it could get beat up. Maybe one made out of foam would be good, but either way those clubs look amazing

[@serfington3137]

Even though I'm not sure how at home it would look in a desert, I wonder if a piece of driftwood in the correct shape wouldn't be a much more in-themed display? Gorgeous prop.

[@twstf8905]

Hahaha 😄 Nerd-gasm giggle at 3:25 (ish) 👍

[@thousand_cuts]

Thanks to boba fett's revival, the gaffi stick is everywhere. Before they brought him back the way they did, it was so hard to find anything on them

[@andrewsock1608]

@adam_tested coaches don’t need coaches. Can I offer you training? I’m not in India anyway

[@jameslee1172]

For the confused americans, yes this is a weapon. You wouldn't give this to a stunt person and tell them to swing around a steel end. Feel free to cast a rubber or build plastic replica if you have to ask if this is a weapon. I don't know why this is such a hard concept. First day of fencing (we were around 10 years old), the instructor gave a serious warning to us that these were weapons. We were not to run with swords. We had to keep tips down. We had to be sure of our target, as they had to give consent to spar While having protection on (hence the visual checks and the verbalisation of En garde, prêt?, Allez). Actively we were trying to score physical touches over vitals, hence how fencing is lethal if you don't take enough precautions. Yet a large metal mass at the end of a staff, (regardless if there is a spike or not), not everyone has carbon/steel toed boots on plus there are kids who are about at this height. Just don't Adam.

[@Hykje]

Roger Christian also directed "Battlefield Earth" but let's be quiet about that.

[@jeanmalo7173]

Not sure if this is accurate but the steel end is a rocket with it's nose cut off and stuck at the bottom instead of the top.

[@Mr.Hopper1]

1 day build on the mask!

[@JayJonahJaymeson]

Last time I was this early someone ended up very disappointed. Seriously though, I'd kill to get to have a poke around that workshop. Even apart from all the cool shit that gets shown off, there is always so much cool looking stuff in the background of most of the shots.

[@scottmantooth8785]

*as to the question of if you would be permitted to carry that mostly metal gaffi stick prop at an actual convention, by thought would be probably not*

[@gaffyh1745]

Looks like Adam is going to need ot make a stand for these Star Wars weapons just like the sword one

[@MrBROTHERFELDER]

The top of the club always reminded me of an acorn! But I wonder what purpose that design really serves besides cosmetic.

[@Hairyloft]

Such amazing props, Tom Spina and Regal Robot just keep getting better. So cool! Great vid!

[@emersonb5764]

3d printing tech is making prop replicas more affordable and obtainable these days. I’m currently waiting on a hand-painted replica of Majora’s Mask from the Legend of Zelda series of games that has the very realistic look of hand carved wood, but took a fraction of the time to make because it’s 3d printed and resin coated and therefore, is a fraction of the cost. Still laborious and pricey but not nearly as laborious and pricey as hand carving a piece like that.

Sure, somebody can make a replica of a prop that appeared in ANH for about 10 seconds, but do you think anyone, anywhere, can make a decent, semi-affordable DL-44 blaster? Nevermind an E11 that is actually for sale and not in the Nerf colour scheme. (Rant over 😉)
