Hollywood Parts is selling off everything from the Terminator Salvation set — and we mean everything. Even boxes of clean t-shirts. While some of the things in this list could be interesting to own, like the Terminator X-Rays, or half metal skeletons of dead terminators, much of this stuff is the worst, especially this silver platform shoe get-up that Helena must have worn when she was a floating head at the end??? This costume must be from the trashed script many moons ago — sad really, 'cause that outfit could only have spiced up this film.

What I love about these pictures, taken from premiere Predator community site Hunter's Lair, is how incredibly beautiful and detailed the outfits are - and how much goofy fun people are having with them. I picked these images in particular because they all show the Predators in very human situations. It's my crazy dream to one day walk into my local grocery store and just run into a Predator in the aisles - or maybe out in the parking lot, being led around by a hot lady in leather. Hey, it could happen. And I've got the photos to prove it!

The blog Propnomicon is devoted to creating props based on Lovecraft's mythos, and one of its ongoing projects is to assemble the specimens, tools, and field notes that might have come out of the Miskatonic Antarctic expedition. This prop maker is hoping to be as true to the story and geological history as possible (although in consulting experts, he finds the two sometimes conflict), and has included core samples and fossils in his prop set, as well as illustrations of the Elder Things, their city and, the Shoggoths, and paraphernalia from Miskatonic itself.

Krix, a graphic designer and propmaker, took Best Journeyman and Best Professional Costume Design at the con for his Big Daddy suit (as well as the accompanying Splicer and Little Sister). The suit took roughly seven weeks to complete (and, he says, was not quite perfected by Dragon*Con) and weighed between 50 and 60 pounds. You can see the spinning drill as well as some shots from his process below, but he has the entire step-by-step posted on his blog.

I have to say I'm most excited about Romo Lampkin's glasses, but very disappointed they didn't have his dead-cat-filled duffel. And on a side note should you be the lucky person to purchase the Raider, um, can I come over?

The auction will be held in Pasadena on January 17 and 18. Check out the 160 page catalog and start saving up for Ellen Tigh's seduction outfit or your very own radiation badge. There's also a stack of concept art and design work up for auction as well that's absolutely worth wading through.

Meanwhile, on a more spoilery topic, after thumbing through this mammoth catalog I've noticed an excessive amount of Zak Adama crap that no one really should feel compelled to purchase. Pictures of Zak and Starbuck being all cutesy, the portrait used at his funeral, his childhood bike and more family pics. Granted, they're also selling Roslin's phone off her desk, but still, it makes you wonder.

The auction, organized by NBC/Universal and Propworx, will take place on January 17 and 18 in Pasadena, and will include a ton of costumes including Starbuck's flight suit. It'll also include production sketches and set plans, an original Viper helmet, President Roslin's desk, Admiral Adama's uniform and his painting of the first Cylon War, some consoles from the CIC AND the actual Arrow of Apollo, which Starbuck retrieved from Caprica.

Meanwhile, there'll also be an online auction after each of the remaining BSG episodes, auctioning off props and costumes from that particular episode. Some of the proceeds from the auctions will go to the United Way. [Wired]
