Note other lots in the auction may close on June 30th or July 1st. The Terminator's (Arnold Schwarzenegger) leather jacket costume with an SFX head from James Cameron's sci-fi action sequel Terminator 2: Judgment Day. The T-800 wore his costume throughout the film, including in the opening scene where he stole the ensemble from a disgruntled biker, his fight sequences with the seemingly invincible T-1000 (Robert Patrick), and his final farewell with John (Edward Furlong) and Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton). Created by costume designer Marlene Stewart, the costume became an iconic piece of pop culture, bringing the franchise into the 1990s with grunge flair. This lot consists of a black leather motorcycle jacket with a self-belt bottom (marked "I.C.9" in white ink inside one of the pockets); a pair of black custom-made leatherette pants; a leather belt with a metal buckle; and a pair of black Harley Davidson motorcycle boots with metal top buckles. Also included is a battle-damaged, bullet-riddled, static T-800 SFX makeup head made by Stan Winston Studio for action sequences in which the T-800 is damaged. The head is hand-punched with brown hair and glass eyes, and painted to appear as if flesh is peeling to reveal the metal endoskeleton underneath. The head is a separate piece to the costume and is mounted on an acrylic stand. The lot exhibits clear signs of wear from age and production use, including significant grime and distressing throughout the jacket, tears in the pants, and flaking foam. It remains in good overall condition. Dimensions (head): 17" x 17" x 16" (43.25 cm x 43.25 cm x 40.75 cm) Estimate: $20,000 - 30,000
