From spies to superheroes, there are always people we wish we could be. These costumes and props available at our exclusive Live Auction this month – will help with that. Check out our top 10 costumes and get ready to place your bids…
An Adventure In Space And Time (2013)
Auction price estimate: £4,000-£6,000
Despite their evil nature, Daleks are the ultimate badasses, even if the early versions (like this one) had trouble with stairs. Just make sure you stick to ramps and your plans for universal domination will be complete.
The Terminator’s (Arnold Schwarzenegger) SFX Crane Chase Jacket
Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines
Auction price estimate: £4,000-£6,000
Because everyone should get to look like the Terminator once in a while. And this jacket has a little wear and tear from effects use that you can incorporate into your stories of travelling in time to fight Skynet.
Superman’s (Christopher Reeve) Underwater Tunic
Superman (1978)
Auction price estimate: £25,000-£30,000
If you can’t have Superman’s strength or invulnerability, at least you can look the part. Christopher Reeve himself wore this, so it has even more of a heroic aura.
Chakotay’s (Robert Beltran) EVA Suit
Star Trek Voyager/First Contact
Auction price estimate: £8,000-£10,000
Starfleet’s finest heroes use this suit in space, so you’ll be well prepared if you want to look cooler than even the coolest astronaut.
Simon Templar’s (Val Kilmer) Thermal Suit
The Saint (1997)
Auction price estimate: £2,500-£3,000
For when you need to break into a temperature control room and feel like the greatest spy/thief in the world. Please note: we don’t condone crime!
The Rocketeer’s (Bill Campbell) Hero Helmet
The Rocketeer (1991)
Auction price estimate: £14,000-£18,000
You might need to provide your own rocket pack, but this fantastic and beautifully crafted prop helmet should keep your head safe.
Ethan Hunt’s (Tom Cruise) London Safe House Costume
Mission: Impossible (1996)
Auction price estimate: £1,000-£1,500
The ultimate superspy (played by Tom Cruise on the big screen) always dresses for the occasion, and now you can too. But don’t try climbing giant buildings, or hanging off of planes – leave that to Tom.
Katsumoto’s (Ken Watanabe) Complete Samurai Costume
The Last Samurai (2003)
Auction price estimate: £20,000-£30,000
This one would probably be better off displayed, but it’s absolutely amazing. It includes a full replica period outfit and a retractable sword.
Kick-Ass’ (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) Mask
Kick-Ass (2010)
Auction price estimate: £1,500-£2,000
The green and yellow mask was worn by the young vigilante. It doesn’t offer a lot of protection for nightly missions patrolling the streets and battling criminals, so please bear that in mind.
Commodus’ (Joaquin Phoenix) Arena Costume
Gladiator (2000)
Auction price estimate: £15,000-£20,000
The perfect outfit for when you want to look and feel like a Roman emperor. Commodus might not have been the hero, but he certainly knew how to look like a leader.
