TOP GUN (1986) - Pete "Maverick" Mitchell's (Tom Cruise) F-14A Tomcat Model Miniature - Pete "Maverick" Mitchell's (Tom Cruise) F-14A Tomcat model miniature from Tony Scott's action drama Top Gun. Top Gun was highly regarded for its aerial combat sequences, which utilized a mixture of live-action photography of actual F-14 jets, and visual effects work with models of various scales. Maverick flew his Grumman F-14 Tomcat at the Naval Air Station Miramar.

Mounted on a black-painted wood base, this model miniature is built from light- and dark gray-painted fiberglass with Maverick's plane number "114" and "NAVY" stenciled on the body. It features a urethane cockpit canopy window affixed above hand-painted miniature models of Maverick and Hazumi, both stationed with labeled helmets in urethane seats via attachment mounts. The miniature exhibits several points of sympathetic repair, as well as grime, faded stenciling from age, wobbling to the base. Dimensions: 23" x 16" x 5" (58.5 cm x 40.75 cm x 12.75 cm)

Estimate: $8,000 - 16,000
