Why Luke has robot hand? In ESB he had synthetic skin. Is it because of budget restrictions?

Probably because luke didn't care if he lost the skin or not.
Muh enlightened jedi ways and what not
so can detach it at a moments notice and replace it with a lightsaber chainsaw
>>64463460
Because it looks cooler.
didnt this happen

Real reason: To remind normies that don't remember or don't know that he has a robot hand.
Probable in story reason: A constant reminder to Luke that anyone can turn to the darkside, even himself.
Because otherwise it would be less obvious it was Luke. But they wanted people to see the robot hand and go "I REMEMBER WHEN HIS HAND GOT CUT OFF!!!". I still think it was a good choice though. It looks a lot more interesting than just a regular hand.

this. I mean he kinda is the son of THE chosen one so, there is no reason to worry about shitty synth skin, plus it looks way cooler.

It probably felt better to jerk off on that island off ireland with no synthskin or whatever gay shit it is because he couldn't feel his cock with his hand. Like when you sleep on your arm and it goes numb.
>>64463460
I assumed it was damaged in some way and he just never replaced the covering.
I think it was also a good visual shorthand to let people know it was luke in the fladhback, as you can't see his face. (Then again they could have just shown his face but I dunno, I didn't direct the fucking thing.)

They got CGI this time around
I just assumed his roboskin got melted off. Which is cooler.
>>64463460
Obviously its JJ MYSTERY SUBPLOT like everything else in tfa

This, he also wore the black glove on that hand the rest of the movie due to the damage. I assume Luke never had it fixed and the tissue covering his machine hand just disintegrated or rotted over time without proper maintenance.
His insurance plan couldn't cover maintenance at the Palpatine Surgical Reconstruction Center

Are you actually retarded? Why would showing a mechanical hand be the result of a restricted budget? Because Mark Hamill's actual hand is prohibitively expensive to film?
>>64463460
>budget restrictions
>pretending Marks hand has a robot underneath is more expensive than a cgi robot hand

THANKS OBAMA

holy shit guy
3PO also lost his arm but that was just a metal gear solid V reference
>>64463460
He's a cutfag, he needs basically a cheese grater to jerk off his mutilated cock.
