A rocket penguin from Tim Burton's superhero sequel Batman Returns. The Penguin (Danny DeVito) delivered his inspirational speech to a crowd of rocket-clad penguins, and models were used to fill out the group of live birds, many of whom wouldn't stay still for the duration of the sequence.

Crafted from rubber with an internal armature, the model penguin wears a silver-painted helmet and harness. A red-and-white candy-striped resin rocket is attached to its back, and three miniature resin rockets are adhered to each wing. The missiles on the penguin are fragile, and the model displays glue remnants down the back and paint wear. It has received minor sympathetic restoration on its left wing. Dimensions: 14 cm x 17 cm x 32 cm (5½" x 6¾" x 12½")

Estimate: £4,000 - 6,000 †Δ
