The pants worn by actor Mark Hamill in the first Oscar-winning "Star Wars" film are being sold at auction and could go for up to $100,000, auctioneers announced Monday.
Mark Hamill wore the pants in the 1977 movie which launched the world-beating franchise by director George Lucas. The pants will be put up for auction on Tuesday, with an estimated sale price of $70,000-$100,000.
"'Star Wars' is one of those rare cinematic experiences that most people remember their whole lives," said Nate D. Sanders, whose company is auctioning the pants in Los Angeles.
"It's hard to believe now, but 'Star Wars' in 1977 was not a 'go' from the start. Several studios passed on making it. But now, we look back on it, over 35 years later, and it's the 3rd highest grossing movie of all time."
Do you think these pants are worth that kind of money?

You don't know who I am? Well sit back because my story is a beautiful tale of power and integrity, a captivating experience and ingenious story.
When I was sent to prison for a crime I didn't commit, I signed up for the weapon X program where I got some acid stuff in my eye which caused me to go blind except for whenever I shout the word, "SHAZAM." I was part of Project: Rebirth and given an indestructible shield, however I had gotten bitten by a radioactive spider which caused my father Odin to banish me from my home, only for both my parents to get shot in an alley. And to top it all off, I was exposed to gamma radiation when my mother died and I was abducted from Earth by a strange blue-skinned alien, which gave me the ability to teleport, shapeshift, read minds, and squirt milk from my nose.
