*EDIT: MORE ITEMS ADDED TO THIS POST. SEE BELOW.*
Hiya, folks...
Long time no see. I was one of the eariler members here, but I've been more or less out of the hobby for the past few years, and I'm just now getting around to liquidating what's left of my prop collection.
Thus, I'm offering up a few high-end display pieces. I may be adding more items to this thread over the next couple of weeks.
Here we go...
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Ok, first up we have an NECA JASON REMAKE mask...

![[Image: neca2.jpg]](http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/TOY%20AND%20PROP%20SALE/neca2.jpg)
This is one of the original releases sold in the display box. Very nice replica on it's own or for anyone who wants to upgrade it...
$30.00 (plus shipping and/or PayPal fees). NO TRADES.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
...and this is one of my personal all-time favorite masks...a good ol' realistic skull and hood Grim Reaper mask with moveable jawbone...
![[Image: skull.jpg]](http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/TOY%20AND%20PROP%20SALE/skull.jpg)
Fantastic quality on this one. Great sculpt. Great paint. It looks like a real skull, rather than the distorted caricatures of skulls that most of these masks try to pull off. (Especially realistic sculpting in the teeth). Black hood is made of thick material and is attached to the mask. The bottom jawbone is attached by a piece of black material that allows it to move whenever you talk with the mask on.
I've just always loved this piece. But...now it's time for it to move on...
[color="#FF0000"]SOLD[/color]

...and here's the big-ticket item...a complete, ultra-film accurate BOBA FETT Costume Mannequin Display with backdrop...
![[Image: 1.jpg]](http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/BOBA%20FETT/1.jpg)
Complete high-end costume with custom mannequin and oversized backdrop poster. More photos and videos can be viewed here:

I've had this standing in my house for the past few years, so I'm not sure if I can remember who all made what parts, but I'll break it down as well as I can...
Helmet: FP MSH2 (Painted by Lee (Rogue Studios))
All Armor and Gauntlets: FP (painted by FP) ~ fiberglass and vacuformed parts
Jetpack and Flightsuit by BobaMaker
Rifle by (SciFire?) ~ it's solid rubber
Leather Belt by (SithCamero?)
Boots by Mark Cheng
Vest was custom-made by me using genuine tackle twill material
Rope Belt by RA
Side pouches by (TK409?)
Shin tools by RA
Cape by BB (Art)
Gloves by (BobaMaker?)
Wookie Braids by (?)
Spats custom-made by me
Neckseal made by me using the tackle twill
...and I think that's pretty much it. Most of the nitpicky details are described with the photos in the gallery. Be sure to read through the descriptions of each photo as there are countless little film-accurate details worked into the display.
My own 2 cents on this display: I've always been amazed by how many people who will invest thousands of dollars in building a Fett costume, only to let it sit in storage bins for 99% of the time when they're not trooping at a convention. But by the same token, most of the mannequin displays that I've seen end up looking stiff, static, and well...like a mannequin. So I went out of my way to create a mannequin display that actually looked like the real Fett standing in the room, in a very "Fett-like" pose that is as authentic to our favorite bounty hunter as possible.
The costume is displayed on a 6 foot (1.8288 m) tall custom mannequin that can be posed in a limited variety of ways. His arms bend at the elbows and I modified the right hand with bendable fingers that tightly grip the rifle. The supersized backdrop of Jabba and his entourage is also included in the sale. So if you stand around 6 feet tall with a slim build, you should be able to wear this.
I spent well over 12 years assembling and upgrading this display to its final state (which I can honestly say is now about 98.6% accurate to the original costume...)
![[Image: 2.jpg]](http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/BOBA%20FETT/2.jpg)
I estimate that I've invested more than $8K into it over the years, but I'll entertain any offer over $5,800 (not including shipping, insurance or any other fees ~ and full tracking and insurance will be mandatory).
The Don Post lifesized statues frequently sell for more than this, and they aren't even remotely film-accurate, nor can the display be posed or the costume be worn. I realize that this is out of the price range for most collectors, but I am willing to entertain any kind of extended payment plan that you would like to suggest. NO TRADES.
And just to be clear:
No, I have no plan to part this out, and I'm in no particular hurry to sell it.

Next Up: An ULTRA-rare Predator bust...
![[Image: IMG_0234.jpg]](http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/PREDATOR/IMG_0234.jpg)
In my humble opinion...the single most film-accurate and realistic P1 bust ever made. I've personally never seen another P1 that could compare with this one. One of the long-lost original Peter Murphy sculpts. Hand-painted by Pete himself. Latex and foam-filled. Custom glass eyes. Real bone necklace. This one's got it all.

[url="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/PREDATOR/14.jpg"]PIC[/url]
$1,600.00.
Price does not include shipping costs or PayPal fees. Full tracking and insurance will be mandatory. Shipping costs will be determined by your address. If you want to use PayPal, that's fine with me, so long as you cover the fee. Personally, I don't like using PayPal on large purchases. The fee is too big, and I don't see the point in wasting money for either of us. But if you're prepared to cover the fee, that's fine. Otherwise, I'll accept a postal money order or bank cashier's check. The bust will only ship after the check has cleared the bank. NO TRADES.
For the serious buyer...I'll entertain payment options over a period of the next few months, if that will help.

A custom-made Predator 2 helmet bust...
![[Image: finp2head0001a.jpg]](http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/PREDATOR/finp2head0001a.jpg)
Full-scale P2 helmet and faceless undermask combo. The P2 helmet is fiberglass with LEDs installed. Descended from original P2 stunt helmet. Also has the "hero-version" upgrade of the vent holes under the chin, and metal eye-mesh. The helmet was painted with multiple layers of reflective coppers and gold paints, and then carefully weathered to bring out all of the surface detail...
![[Image: oddsends0003a.jpg]](http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/PREDATOR/oddsends0003a.jpg)
The undermask was sculpted specifically for the P2 movie helmet, so it's an absolute perfect match. To my knowledge, it's the only such mask. It is hollow and wearable (I simply stuffed it with padding for display purposes). The neck seal is part of the mask. I sculpted the talon bones on the neckseal myself to replicate the movie mask. The necklace is made from real bones and fangs.
![[Image: finp2head0009a.jpg]](http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/PREDATOR/finp2head0009a.jpg)
It is adorned with a full set of bambooie dreads. Every last dread hole is filled. No empty sockets. I forget how many there are, exactly...and I don't really feel like trying to count them, but I believe there are around 60. The dread rings were (re) cast from 2 of the ORIGINAL P2 dread rings from the original screen-used head (with generous permission from the original owner). Detailed with leather cord and metal rings of various size, and then heavily weathered.
All in all...I consider this to be the ultimate P2 helmet-bust display. I'll even include the trophy skull.
(dart not included).
$850.00 (plus shipping and/or PayPal fees). NO TRADES.
As above, full insurance and tracking will be mandatory.

...and here's the most sought-after Sideshow Wolf Predator Helmet with Stand/Wall Mount...
![[Image: artroom2.jpg]](http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb179/BOUNTYHAUNTER/DISPLAY/artroom2.jpg)
This is one of the earlier copies released...#241 out of 1000...and it's absolutely mint. All packaging and paperwork included. It will be shipped in both of it's original Sideshow boxes.
$500.00 (plus shipping and PayPal fee).
