Several of the tiny Robots from the episode “The Mechanical Men”.

The original logo globe (went for over $4000 on eBay a few years ago).

Oh! I forgot, a stillsuit from the first (and only, IMO) Dune movie. One of the few timew where the prop looked better than what I had immagined.

The sign that says ‘Rick’s Cafe Americain’.
Rosebud.

Great thread idea!

The single most valuable piece of music memorabilia as yet unauctioned is probably Paul McCartney’s 1964 Fender Stratocaster bass guitar. (His much-played Hofner bass is also a much-coveted piece.) But I’d settle for a B&W publicity photo from Help!.

From the movies:

The big rubber octopus used in Ed Wood. What I’d like to know is whether it was the same rubber octopus used by Ed Wood in Bride of the Atom… does anybody happen to know?

The police officer’s singed boots from Repo Man – which was all that was left of said officer after he opened the trunk of the '64 Chevy Malibu.

David Byrne’s oversized suit from Stop Making Sense.

From The Wicker Man: the hobby horse costume, the Punch costume, the police sergeant’s uniform, the ghastly “Hand of Glory” candle, and Beech Buchanan’s headstone would all be really neat, if somewhat disturbing, props to own.

One of the everlasting gobstoppers from Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

The zither played throughout (but always unseen, of course) from The Third Man, Kirk Douglas’ ukulele from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and the bouzouki played onscreen in Monty Python’s “Cheese Shop” skit.

The Holy Grail from the second Indiana Jones movie, and the Holy Hand Grenade from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Bond’s trick attache case (with throwing knife, exploding gas canister, and fifty gold sovereigns) from From Russia With Love, although I’d happily settle for his black Greek captain’s hat, from the same movie.

Um, the Batmobile, anyone? I’d like the 60’s one and the Burton one, and I’d race 'em.

that’s a good one…
also, any of the comic book artwork from Chasing Amy or Mallrats (esp. the covers in Mallrats featuring the movie’s characters)

A few more ('cause I’m greedy):

Another vote here for the Orgasmatron, from Woody Allen’s Sleeper. Another prop from same: the flattened nose of the Great Leader.)

One of the alien eggs from Alien. (There were also a bunch of eggs in Aliens, but Ripley put them to the torch.)

The brass mechanical owl from Clash of the Titans.

The big hourglass from The Wizard of Oz. (Of course, one of the flying monkeys would be just swell.)

The mummy of Mrs. Bates, from Psycho.

Madonna’s (and then Rosanna Arquette’s) pyramid denim jacket, from Desperately Seeking Susan.

Audrey Hepburn’s cigarette holder from Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and Kathleen Turner’s white dress from Body Heat.

The tiny droid used for Jedi target practice in Star Wars.

Lionel’s mother (big puppet at the end) from Braindead

The zombie baby costume from Braindead

The three-foot penis monster puppet from The Toxic Avenger 4

The blair-monster (the huge foam puppet) from The Thing

The dildo used to beat Smithy Robinson to death in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels

The bren gun prop, also from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels

The tar-man costume from Return of the Living Dead

The fake Tarzan head which gets punched in from the chin out the mouth The Story of Ricky

The machete Tom Savini used in Dawn of the Dead

Sick? Me?

The “baby” from Eraserhead.

Battlestar Galactica (original) w/Colonial Viper.

The bar from Cheers and the front desk from Fawlty Towers.

The 60s one comes up for sale on ebay from time to time, usually for about US$50000. I gather there are quite a few of them.

Willow Rosenberg, pre-gayifying.

What?

One of the monoliths in 2001: A Space Odyssey

Would make for one hell of a conversation piece for the living room. :cool:

Dammit, Eve! You beat me to both the pieces I wanted! I guess I’ll have to settle for Joel Cairo’s handkerchief and Dorothy’s bucket.

**BuckleberryFerry, Ilsa_Lund, Tijuana_Golds ** and all of you, stay the hell away from My Precious. :mad:

I would very much like to have the paintings from Owen Wilson’s apartment in The Royal Tennenbaums

I want Jules’ wallet. The one that says bad motherfucker.

I’d like Marilyn Monroe’s dress from the Seven Year Itch - cliched I know, but I’m sure my SO would get a kick out of it if he saw me wearing it and standing over a subway vent (too bad we don’t have an underground rail system in Dublin yet :rolleyes: ).

Can’t think of anything else really - Dr Zhivago’s mother’s balalaika (sp?) would have been good but someone else already took that…
Ooh ooh wait - Cyd Charise’s costume from the ‘Broadway Ballet’ number in Singin’ in the Rain. That would be pretty cool though unfortunately not so cool when I can’t dance like her :frowning:
