T2' Skeleton Brings in $500,000

[wayshway]

CALABASAS, Calif. — A cyborg skeleton from "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" brought in nearly $500,000 on Friday in an auction of Hollywood memorabilia dominated by props and costumes from Arnold Schwarzenegger's shoot-em-up sci-fi franchise.

The T-800 Endoskeleton used in the 1991 film brought in $488,750, said Marc Kruskol, a spokesman for Profiles in History, which staged the auction.

An armored drone went for $109,250, and a full-body Terminator model went for $74,750. Both items were from "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines."

A full-scale tyrannosaurus rex head from "Jurassic Park" was the second priciest item of the day, bringing in $126,500.

Gentle, kindly Mary Poppins could hardly compete. Julie Andrews' signature gabardine coat from the 1964 film brought in a comparatively modest $63,250.
