Our expert's notes

Thing's costume from Tim Story's superhero adventure-sequel Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer. Ben Grimm (Michael Chiklis), transformed into the rock-like Thing, stood with the team throughout the film as they confronted the Silver Surfer (Doug Jones) and attempted to save the Earth from the powerful force of Galactus.

Made from foam latex, the costume consists of separate appliances for the head, torso with arms attached, legs, hands and feet. The components feature ridged, rock-like patterns with an orange paint finish that has a wash applied to darken the recesses of Thing's skin. Each piece is fitted with black press studs and Velcro to secure them together. The torso has a zip running up the length of the back to fasten, and is labelled 'Stunt Double #1'. The legs are fitted to a stretchable mesh that is suspended from the shoulders on elasticated braces. Both the legs and feet show the label 'Rob' and the hands display the label 'Stunt'. The headpiece has holes for the eyes, nose and mouth, with a skull cap that can be removed from the main body. The costume includes a pair of large blue Lycra shorts with a navy waist band. Accompanying the costume is another hand, also labelled 'Stunt'.

This ensemble is presented on a custom-built display mannequin and base. Signs of wear are evident, including paint chips and hardening at the edges, with minor splits in the foam latex. Dimensions (on display): 48 cm x 73 cm x 184 cm (19" x 28 ¾" x 72 ½")

Estimate: £6000 - £8000
