The item expected to be most notable for the event is Princess Leia’s medal ceremony dress designed by John Mollo, who won an Oscar for his Star Wars designs.

One of the six Batpods used for The Dark Knight (2008) and The Dark Knight Rises (2012) starring Christian Bale is up for auction as well. While the item was rendered undrivable and in “Rolling Only” condition, it’s fixed with the custom chassis, a Honda 750 engine, fiberglass cannon barrels, and a metal display stand. The use and history of the prop are still unique and an allure to devoted Batman fans.

Guardians of the Galaxy fans may be interested in a Peter Quill prop in the collection. Star-Lord’s helmet from Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) is on the list, complete with the ability to light up with 9V batteries. It’s a foam and suede piece designed to look like metal yet remains functional for the set.

There are quite a few options for horror fans as well. An evil clown doll from Poltergeist (1982) was screen-matched for authenticity. The Spider-Head Thing from John Carpenter’s The Thing (1982) is expected to be one of the big-ticket items. Jason Voorhees’s mask from Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood is on the list as well, among many other items.

There are many other items in this collection, the company boasts over 1,400 lots will be listed. The auction will take place from June 28 to June 30 in Los Angeles, California.
