So how come Luke now has an Anakin like robot hand. In episode V it's pretty obvious he's given a synthetic human style hand.
Inb4 the fake flesh was burned off or some shit.
No, we see the insides as the robot is testing his senses and it's not some metal hard chain link hand shit.

Maybe he got a metal one because he wanted a reminder of...his...um...almost robotting to the robot side and so he wouldn't robot anymore!

Hello Reddit.
>>63803597
he didn't do maintenance in it since he was in the fucking island
>>63803678
He had it in the force flashback when rey touched the lightsaber.
>>63803678
This. Synthetic skin/blood probably doesn't hold up that well after 30 years without any maintenance
Probably a low maintenance replacement. Can you imagine the cost of getting synthetic skin shipped out to that little rock for the smallest cuts?

>In episode V it's pretty obvious he's given a synthetic human style hand.
It had flesh-like material covering, but the insides were mechanical, it even shows in ESB the metal parts inside while the medical droid is testing his nerve reactions.

Hey, just because I'm not funny doesn't mean I frequent reddit. I hate that fucking site.

>le the hand will degrade just because
Why would it degrade lol?
>>63803735
No it shows alien android type synthetic tendons controlling his fingers and what not.
>>63803762
They literally show the inside of his wrist and there's a bunch of pistons and stuff. Why are you getting all autistic about nothing?
>>63803811
>yeah man just lose the skin and shit off this and it'll totally look like his new one
Are you retarded? they are nothing alike.
>>63803762
>Why would it degrade lol?
The individual cells of a real hand are replaced naturally as they die, how would a synthetic replacement do that, exactly?
>>63804508
Non living shit (see: synthetic) doesn't have cells.
>>63803597
It's more cinematic to show a robotic hand. This is more important to JJ than continuity.
>>63804556
But it degrades and has to be replaced, if Luke runs out of synthetic skin he has to leave the hand skinless.
>>63804858
Why would it degrade?
>>63804886
Go buy a pair of leather gloves and wear them 24/7 for 30 years and come back to us and let us know whether they degraded or not.
I'll be waiting.
Maybe he got it replaced/skin removed after return of the jedi since it got shot and there was a a big ugly hole in the back of his hand.
>>63804937
Why would leather gloves I can buy in a hardware store be on parity with some super advanced synthetic tech from a universe where they have colossal space ships and shit?
>>63803597
>in the middle of an intergalactic war Luke goes sightseeing
>leaves a treasure map in case someone needs to reach him
>>63804985
Because it's skin, and leather is skin anon.
>>63805032
It's not skin, it's synthetic skin.
>>63803597
because it looks cool
>>63805056
It's replicated skin that has nerve endings so he can feel with touch.
>>63805317
He feels with the force idiot.
I'm assuming something happened to the skin sock after 30 fucking years.
>>63805056
>Trust me. I'm an expert on fucking nothing.
>>63803597
Maybe his uncle cut off his new hand
have you never seen...
>>63803597
Because the synthetic skin wore off and since he was in hiding he didn't get it replaced.

I know your soft baby hands have never touched anything but keyboards and your pasty dick your entire life, but doing work with your hands usually ends up in cuts and stuff, especially over time.
Maybe it got...chopped off at some point...again?
>>63803897
That's his wrist you cuck. Which is made of metal. Like his hand underneath the skin.
