The TARDIS. The full-size one, from Ten’s era. (Not the interior set–the police box.) Also, Gene Wilder’s purple jacket from _Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory_. (I see the title of the thread says movie/TV show, so I’m not sure why people are complaining about TV items. Maybe it was changed after the fact…) ---

Also speaking of rides: The last of the V8 Interceptors from Mad Max. ---

The Major Award from “A Christmas Story” would look great in \*my \*living room window, too. Too bad it got broken. ---

Indy’s whip is a good choice. I’d also like a phaser from ST:TOS and a crysknife from Dune. ---

> [@Katriona](#): > > Mulder’s “I want to believe” poster from The X-Files. Or Mulder. Yeah, I think I read that it was so popular that many copies of it were stolen over the years of production. ---

One of the original light saber handles from the original Star War movies. I’d probably pick Luke’s, the one that Han uses to cut open that beast in Empire. ---

Some of these you can have, you know. Profiles in History, out in Hollywood, is the leading auction house for Hollywood memorabilia. Indy’s whip sold recently for only $114,000. Practically petty cash: you can dig it out of the cushions of your sofa. The [online catalogues](https://www.profilesinhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/HA56L.pdf) are fun to go through. ---

Some of Ray Harryhausen or WIllis O’Brien’s monster models, that they used for stop-motion effects.
