  If I remember right he used his right hand to stop the blaster shot in 
TESB. That same hand was shown in ROTJ to be a mechanical replacement so 
we can assume that it could be armor. He may have even guessed that Han
would fire and could have replaced his whole arm with a dummy one made
of solid neutrons. Nothing is to good for a Dark Lord and it would put
a healthy fear in the stormtroopers that saw this demo.
