20 Things You Somehow Missed In Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi

13. Luke's Episode VI Blaster Scorch On His Robotic Hand

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, poor ol' Luke Skywalker only went and got his hand cut off by his half-machine father in The Empire Strikes Back.

However, by the time fans were reunited with the son of Anakin on Ahch-To in the sequel trilogy, his once artificial skin-covered mitt had now become a prosthetic hand that looked similar to his father's during the prequels.

And not only that, this cybernetic right paw actually possessed an easily overlooked scorch mark - seen when Rey hands Anakin's lightsaber back to Luke early on. This was a bit of damage that was done thirty years earlier during Return of the Jedi.

That's right, this is the exact same hole that was created by someone on Jabba's sail barge when a blaster was fired at the legendary Jedi in Episode VI.
