Star Wars, James Bond and Daredevil bring top prices at Hollywood Auction
Also, Marty McFly's hoverboard
If you wanted that original T.I.E. fighter miniature from Star Wars, you missed your chance. You could have outbid the person who spent $402,500, and it would have been yours. At an auction in Calabasas, CA, on July 31 and August 1 from Profiles in History sold a variety of items for more than $4.1 million.
What else was there?
$207,000 Abraham Lincoln early albumen photograph signed
$74,750 Ian Fleming autograph manuscript relating to the James Bond movie From Russia With Love
$69,000 Screen-used full scale animatronic male Velociraptor from Jurassic Park III

$63,250 Michael J. Fox "Marty McFly" hero Mattel hoverboard from Back to the Future Part II & III
$57,500 Ben Affleck "Daredevil" hero costume from Daredevil
$54,625 Screen-used full-scale male T-Rex head from The Lost World: Jurassic Park II

I totally would have bid on the Daredevil suit if it came with Ben Affleck.
