Dink Meeker’s (Khylin Rhambo) Salamander Flash Suit from Gavin Hood’s 2012 sci-fi adaptation, Ender’s Game. In the film, Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield) is recruited to lead the International Fleet against the alien race known as Formics. Flash Suits were used during the film’s Battle Room training sequences. Features of the suit, such as the neck piece and shoulder pads, were designed to be modular, allowing a suit’s color accents to be changed depending on what army was being portrayed. Many items of this lot are components of Dink’s Flash Suit and were likely worn by Rhambo while shooting Battle Room sequences.

This Flash Suit costume consists of a jacket, pants, balaclava, gloves, boots, and green flash suit pads. The jacket is made of synthetic nylon material with a concealed zipper up the center of the chest. The jacket features no sizing information but is labelled “Dink”. The green pads are all labeled “Dink hero”. The pants, marked “Suit 1 Dink”, are made from the same material as the jacket and feature a bib style mesh top with black collar that is worn under the shirt. A small magnet on the right leg can be used to hold the Flash Gun. The pants also feature concealed clips which correspond to clips on the jacket. The gloves are made from matching nylon and are labeled “Khylin”. The boots are constructed from a pair of Rhino shoes (US size 12) and are labeled for Rhambo’s use.

The flash gun is constructed primarily of 3d printed resin pieces. The gun features small coils running inside the gun’s barrel and a magnet mounted in translucent blue plastic for mounting to a Flash Suit. The gun is detailed with silver and copper paint to appear metallic. The piece has slight wear from production use.

This lot includes a production made foam mannequin cast from Khylin Rhambo. Mannequins like this were created for many of the main characters to be used by the costuming department when constructing the custom tailored Flash Suits. The foam remains unpainted but for the head. The arms, one leg, and head are all removable. When fully dressed the flash suit measures 70” x 26” x 15” (178cm x 66cm x 38cm).

The included mannequin has sustained some damage from production use including damaged connectors and chips to foam. All other components of this lot remain in great, production used condition.
