LIFEFORCE (1985) - Roger Derebridge (Nicholas Ball) Model Miniature Puppet with Manned Maneuvering Unit - A Roger Derebridge (Nicholas Ball) model miniature puppet with a Manned Maneuvering Unit from Tobe Hooper's Lifeforce. British astronaut Derebridge donned a spacesuit when he ventured into an alien spaceship. Puppets were created for the model-miniature shots inside the spaceship.

The body is made of plaster and dressed in a baggy Spandex spacesuit decorated with flag and emblem stickers at the shoulders. Attached to the chest is a life-support-system box made of vacuum-formed plastic. The puppet is outfitted with a NASA Manned Maneuvering Unit, which is made of vacuum-formed plastic and decorated with both U.S. and U.K. flag stickers. The puppet previously had wires attached to suspend the piece and make the legs kick; however, these wires have since been cut. The prop has grown fragile with age and should be handled with care, and exhibits some wear, including torn stickers and a missing compartment door on the Manned Manoeuvering Unit. Dimensions: 8" x 9" x 20" (20.5 cm x 23 cm x 51 cm)

Estimate: $3,500 - 7,000
