September 22, 2009

Reuters reports that Megan Fox's black leather motorcycle costume, a 17-foot-tall robot and more than 100 other props, costumes and set pieces from the "Transformers" movie franchise are going up for auction near Los Angeles next month:

Auctioneer Profiles in History said it expected the 3,200 pound (1.45 ton) Hero Bumblebee robot from the first movie in 2007 to fetch $60,000 to $80,000 at the Oct 8-9 auction.

The disassembled robot is currently stored in boxes. All the items were consigned by the films' Viacom Inc-owned distributor, Paramount Pictures, and their director, Michael Bay.

Bids can be placed in person at the auction in Calabasas, outside Los Angeles, by phone or live on the Internet.

You can check out the auction here.

Its things like this that remind me how poor I really am! Or maybe its how wasteful of money others can be... I can't remember.

I read in Entertainment Weekly that Paramount is hurting for cash...they pushed "Shutter Island" to next year because they couldn't afford marketing now...guess they are having a "garage sale" for some extra dough (maybe G.I.Joe cost them more than they will admit...)

I don't think the motorcycle outfit will fit me.

I wish I could waste money like that, but I could probably afford a life size Terminator endoskeleton and still get just as big a geek factor as I would from a 10-20 foot tall robot. Now if it was Optimus you can better believe I would go on a bank robbing spree like John Dillinger
