I was going through some of my reference photos several months ago and came across some behind the scenes/production filming photos of Darth Vader. I had seen them but had never clicked and enlarged them fully. Upon doing so I saw something on the MPP clamp that I had never noticed before. There was a small square greeblie of some sort. I slowly went through every picture I have in my possession to see if I could spot this in other photos and see which scenes they related to. Upon doing this, I believe I have confirmed that the greeblie was in fact on Hoth and on the Executor Star Destroyer scenes. The Bespin gantry scenes and hallway are inconclusive. The bumper had fallen off for the dining room and carbon freezing chamber scenes.
I sent some inquiries out to others that I knew had access to photos and reference I might not have and asked for confirmation. No one I contacted had any previous knowledge of the added greeblie, but it had to be present in filming based on the scenes the photos corresponded with. I spoke with Chris Trevas lonepigeon and he said it sure looked like a part he had and that was used on some other items, but he couldn’t remember exactly where he got it from. He’s going to be posting this to the Parts of SW Instagram page this afternoon also. https://www.instagram.com/p/C2QVjp1uUBC/?igsh=eGxuOHZjc3Qwb2Q2
There are quite a few people I know that help look for items to complete projects. One such friend is cdyoung. I asked if he could help me look for this random item and said it was a square rubber feet/bumpers. I had been looking at computer anti-skid rubber feet because it reminded me of the ones used on the Han rotj dl-44s. It wasn’t quite the same however. cdyoung ended up finding it on an already identified found item, a desktop Texas Instruments or Exactra calculator. Models TI-3000, TI-3500, or Exactra 31, and the TI-3500 just so happens to be the same calculator model newmagrathea had identified for the ANH x-wing control stick, located here: RESEARCH: X-WING CONTROL STICK

Now, on to the good parts, the photos. Please don’t be mad about the watermarks. I tried to make them as inconspicuous as I could, but it was a condition of me being able to post these. Click to enlarge!
One of my ESB MPPs so you know what to look for in the pictures below.
