2010: THE YEAR WE MAKE CONTACT (1984) - Boss Film Studios Discovery Study Model - A Discovery study model made by effects company Boss Film Studios for the production of Peter Hyams' sci-fi sequel 2010: The Year We Make Contact. Study models were created to calibrate the proportions of the Discovery by studying its design in a 3D space.

This ornately detailed model is constructed from mixed media, including cast resin, vacuum-formed plastic, and wood, and hand-painted industrial gray and applied with grime to appear abandoned. It comes mounted via metal rods to a wooden display base inside a custom shipping crate. Also included is a Letter of Authenticity from visual effects supervisor Richard Edlund. The model's central section is wrapped with tape for stability and exhibits fracturing, chipping resin, and paint scuffing throughout. Dimensions: 80" x 10" x 19" (203.25 cm x 25.5 cm x 48.25 cm)

Special shipping required; see notice in the Buyer's Guide.

Estimate: $5,000 - 10,000
