My recent purchase, Terminator 2

[T2SF]

One of my favorite prop costume pieces from Terminator 2.

Comes from a private collector, COA from a C list entertainer in Hollywood who worked in various model shops.

The details are right so I feel it's legit. I don't know if I have the energy to match it to anything on screen though. The gloves have cast latex endoskeleton finger parts glued inside the glove and then a soft material covers that to protects Arnolds delicate hands. Also visible are some torn flesh areas, also molded latex and then painted.

Some history on the grenade sling/bandolier, the adjuster was a manufactured piece from car racing harnesses. The square flat buckle was custom made for the movie. The grenade sling was never a real army item, completely designed and fabricated for the movie.

I plan on creating a simple wall mount display for it.

Hope you enjoy! Chris

Well you must get a few fake grenades to fill up some of the slots!

Would be a shame for it live out it's days unfulfilled as it were.

I can do fake grenades myself no problem. I'd love to find 3 production made/screen used grenades though

Yup, a race car harness for 3" belts. I think it's called an adjuster. Should have emailed me, I can get them for cheaper. The big square buckle was custom made so don't bother looking.

 

[Sidewinder]

Cheaper than 5 quid? Lol n'er mind. I know the other buckle was custom and can make one of those. Is the webbing material available in lengths (rather than having to buy a complete harness) do you know?

[T2SF]

Yup, you can buy by the Yard. Check Ebay, 3" black webbing.

 

[Sidewinder]

Is there a particular type/material?
