Our expert's notes

A light-up Armadillo model miniature from Michael Bay’s sci-fi adventure Armageddon. Multiple model miniatures were used for the film’s visual-effects sequences. This model would have been used for shots towards the end, which showed the Armadillo traversing the asteroid surface.

The Armadillo model is made of resin and finished in faux-silver paint. The vehicle features detailed paneling across the cab section, six independently mounted wheels, and a top-mounted drilling arm. Made of dense foam, the uneven asteroid base displays cast-in surface markings and intentionally cut-out sections, and has been painted in various shades of green.

Presented on a custom-made display, the lot contains internal electronics, powered by two buttons on the base which illuminate three small lights on the vehicle and the film’s title artwork. An exposed cable runs down into the base and minor paint wear is present on the asteroid surface. Dimensions: 45 cm x 25 cm x 37 cm (17 ¾” x 10” x 14 ¾”)

This item contains electronic components.
