And if you are an ardent fan of both of ‘em then you would love to bid for the two life-size robot doubles from the movie that are all set to go on the auction block this week. A chrome-plated T-800 “endoskeleton” featured in the opening scene of “Terminator 2” set in the Los Angeles of 2029, is expected to fetch as much as $100,000. A fleshed-out model that appeared in the “Terminator 3” finale is estimated at $60,000 to $80,000. So if you are nostalgic about Arnie and his role as a robot then try your luck today and tomorrow at the Profiles in History auction house in Calabasas, California.
Part of the proceeds from their sale will be donated to the United Nations Children’s Fund. The robot figures are among 1,200 items of Hollywood memorabilia to be sold in 200 lots.
