This article is more than 2 years old
Hollywood auctions are, as a rule, the purview of people with way more disposable income than me, but every once in a while there’s one that causes me to speculate whether I still need both of my kidneys. For those of you with mad cash to blow, turn your eyes toward Hollywood Extravaganza X, an upcoming auction that is offering up tons of props and memorabilia, including some gems from the Star Trek franchise’s long history.
The auction will be happening on June 15 in El Segundo, California, but you can bid online. The Trek items range from the badass (a Klingon Bird of Prey from Deep Space Nine), to the surreal (one of Worf’s nose prosthetics from Next Gen), to the legendary (a friggin’ tribble!). They’ve also got items from Battlestar Galactica, Stargate, Alien Nation, The X-Files, and Doctor Who.
On the movie side of things, they a ton of stuff from the Terminator films, Stars both Trek and Wars, and even and Dr. Morbius’ costume from Forbidden Planet, which I would totally buy for my dad if I had the cash.
If you want to branch out from the science fiction genre, they’ll have items up for auction including lost footage from Johnny Carson’s tenure on The Tonight Show, Tom Hardy’s Bane mask from The Dark Knight Rises, and my personal favorite, the item I am seriously considering robbing a bank in order to acquire: the severed toe of Bunny Lebowski from The Big Lebowski.
Being honest, I’m sure this stuff is going to sell for way more than most of us could afford, but if any of our deep-pocketed GFR readers actually land any of this stuff, send us pics to brag and we’ll mentally high-five you.
