• Back to the Future collectors can get their hands on the Screen-Matched "A" (Hero) Car DeLorean Time Machine’s Mr. Fusion Reactor from Back to the Future Part II (1989). A key component of Doc Brown’s time machine, this device converted household waste into energy, allowing the DeLorean to journey through time.

• There are some incredible lots from 90s sci-fi classics, including the Screen-Matched Light-Up Zorg Industries "Rocket Launcher" ZF-1 from The Fifth Element (1997). Wielded by Gary Oldman’s villainous Zorg, this futuristic weapon is estimated between $60,000 - $120,000.

The auction showcases some incredible lots for Star Trek fans, including a Light-Up Husnock Starship Model Miniature from Star Trek: The Next Generation (est. $40,000 to $80,000) and a “Live Long and Prosper” pendant modelled after Leonard Nimoy’s iconic Vulcan salute. This pendant is one of only ten that travelled to space aboard a Blue Origin flight - one of which was recently gifted to science icon Bill Nye. As the first ever made available to the public, it is estimated at $20,000 to $40,000. Proceeds from this lot and five others will benefit the Leonard Nimoy Memorial at the Museum of Science in Boston and support COPD research at UCLA.
