Griefboy, I believe Brundelfly has one for sale if you're still looking.

On it! Thanks Willie!alienscollection.com said:
For me It was a screen used ape soldier rifle and back ground masks from the first Planet of the apes movie. I did snag two screen used make up appliances that I still have, and a Hawkman helmet from Flash Gordon, but to this day I regret not getting that gorilla mask, especially as the dealer only wanted £25 for it back in the early 1980's.
Rats.

Pretty much any of the batman cowls from batman & robin
A WW2 re-enactor supply house called At The Front sold uniforms, field gear and plastic weapons from "Saving Private Ryan" at downright ridiculously cheat prices, even then. I bought some of the stuff but I really wish I'd bought an awful lot more. It was all so cheap, people were buying the stuff and modifying it to use in re-enactments.
I've also had the chance to buy, but turned down:
*Complete Imperial soldier uniform from the crew of War Rocket Ajax from "Falsh Gordon"
*"Total recall" federal guard helmet for just $40 (I still wonder why I didn't snatch that up)
*"Planet of the Apes" rifle housing
*"Band of Brothers" complete T-5 parachute
*"Space Cowboys" space shuttle liftoff-entry suit (I passed because I thought at the time it was probably stolen from the production, now I wonder if it was really from the movie at all)
*"Memphis Belle" (1990 movie) screen-used A-2 jacket
*ROTJ Stormtrooper armor pieces, found by a friend of mine while picking through the California 'Endor' filming site, confirmed by three other friends of mine that saw as he stumbled across them all in one spot
*Apollo space suit from the TV series, "Space"
*"The Story of GI Joe" Burgess Meredith's 'Ernie Pyle' field jacket. It was NOT cheap but man I regret not biting the bullet on that
*BUT MOST OF ALL: "Aliens" screen-used pulse rifle complete metal housing, only missing the shotgun and Tommy gun. I missed that one because the guy wanted a small fortune and I didn't have the money but man do I wish I'd been able to buy that...
My god there's so many items from Battlestar I missed but off the top of my head...
-Tyrol Orange Decksuit
-Gaeta Dogtags
-Apollo Flightsuit
And so many more things..... Oh well I'm still looking for pretty much anything Battlestar if any collectors are reading this and fancy selling!
the prop store was at c5 and was suppose to have had a screen used scout helmet for sale. i was going to try and buy it, but they guy was reluctant to negotiate the price with me... i should have bought it anyway. kicking myself over it.
Been lucky and have gotten everything I wanted.
