A limited edition melted Darth Vader helmet replica made by Propshop for the promotion of J.J. Abrams' Star Wars: The Force Awakens. In the film, Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) brooded over the charred remains of Lord Vader's (David Prowse) helmet.

Propshop, the industry prop and set decoration fabricator who created many props for The Force Awakens, released only 500 made-to-order, 3D-printed replicas of the melted helmet in partnership with Disney and Lucasfilm. The pieces were made from original 3-D scan data from the production to ensure they were as accurate as possible. This helmet is constructed of a range of proprietary synthetic materials, hand-painted in Vader's signature charcoal-black, sanded, and affixed with metal details near what was once the breathing apparatus. Also included is a black plastic display stand with a plaque featuring the film's logo and the original packing including a cardboard box, and custom wood crate featuring Lucasfilm's logo and the film logo.

This lot is in excellent overall condition with minor signs of handling to both boxes and the original plastic wrapping removed. Dimensions (boxed): 23.5" x 30" x 17" (59.75 cm x 76.25 cm x 43.25 cm)

Estimate: $5,000 - 7,000
