Star Wars: A New Hope, Imperial Stormtrooper Thermal Detonator

replica movie prop

A standard component of Stormtrooper armor, carried on the back of the belt, this devastating explosive device features adjustable blast intensity and detonation timer delay. Controls are keycoded and unlabeled, preventing use by Rebel forces upon the trooper's death or capture.  Much larger (and more powerful) than the more commonly available Merr-Sonn class-A thermal detonator.

Vacuform plastic components with aluminum belt clips.  No electronics.
