Brandon Alinger, Propstore chief operating officer, said: 'We've assembled one of the most impressive selections of authentic props and costumes ever brought to market — pieces of genuine cultural history that continue to inspire awe decades after their debut.
'Whether it's the craftsmanship of an original Batsuit, the power of a Star Wars lightsabre, each item tells a story.
'We're proud to offer this exceptional collection and to give collectors and fans a rare opportunity to claim a tangible piece of the films and shows that shaped our imaginations.'
Other items in the sale include Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man costume from the 2002 film of the same name, estimated to make between 100,000 and 200,000 dollars (£76,000-£149,000), and a flamethrower used by Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley in Aliens (1986), which is predicted to sell for between 125,000 and 250,000 dollars (£93,000-£186,000).

Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins in chaos as two more stars quit within A MINUTE of each other
The DS was left stunned by the two star's choices no love lost Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins in chaos as two more stars quit within A MINUTE of each other Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TWO more stars have quit Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins in chaotic scenes. The brutal Channel 4 show returned for a new series on Sunday night, with 14 famous faces attempting to push themselves to the max. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Love Islander Chloe Burrows threw in the towel - or arm band - early in the second episode Credit: PA 5 Chloe just couldn't go on after struggling on the climb 5 Tasha gave up just a few minutes after Chloe However, the first episode saw S Club singer Hannah Spearritt quit on day one, closely followed by former Dancing on Ice judge, Louie Spence. The second episode aired tonight and within minutes, a further two celebrities ripped off their arm bands and called it quits. The stars were tasked with trekking up a hill, before taking on the challenge of hanging from a wire over a ravine. However, Love Island star Chloe Burrows struggled on the climb, having already told her co-stars that she was finding the demands of the show difficult. As she was berated by the Special Forces staff for her moaning noises, she ripped off her arm band and told them between gasps for breath: "I can't do it." The DS was furious and yelled: "Can't do what? We've walked 300 metres up a f***ing hill!" He then told Chloe she was "wasting a massive opportunity" but through her tears, she told him: "I'm done, I'm done." After handing over her arm band, she headed down the hill, chucking her water bottle before taking off her backpack and saying: "F*** off, this is the worst thing I have ever done in my whole life!" But Chloe wasn't alone for long, as within a minute she was joined by another former Love Islander. The group continued climbing the hill, and the DS drilled number 5 - Tasha Ghouri - telling her to "dig deep" as she lagged behind. Hannah Spearritt quits on day one of Celebrity SAS- Who Dares Wins But an exhausted and struggling Tasha held up her arm band and told the shocked DS: "I'm not mentally here. I'm not mentally here to do this." After heading down the hill, the two women reunited and discussed their sudden exits from the course. Tasha said: "You have to be so mentally strong to do this." Chloe replied: "And physically." 5 The two women discussed their sudden exits from the show 5 Hannah Spearritt (left) was the first to quit on Sunday's episode Credit: Pete Dadds / Channel 4 Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins continues Sunday at 9pm on Channel 4.

Oasis huge Scots shows will see major ban enforced over safety fears
A source said it is 'definitely the right move' STOP FLYING YOUR HEART OUT STOP FLYING YOUR HEART OUT Oasis huge Scots shows will see major ban enforced over safety fears Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A NO-fly zone will be in place over Oasis's massive Scots shows. Aviation watchdogs have banned drones over the stadium amid worries fans could be injured if a device falls from the sky. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Oasis Live 25 will be coming to Edinburgh this week Credit: PA 4 A no-fly zone has been set up over Murrayfield during the concerts Credit: News Group Newspapers Ltd 4 The drone ban zone was brought in to protect gig-goers Credit: Getty Anyone caught using the gadgets faces fines amid a huge security operation at Murrayfield in Edinburgh. Similar curbs were brought in for the Stop Crying Your Heart Out rockers' comeback performances in Manchester and Cardiff last month. Brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher are set to take to the stage at the home of Scottish rugby on Friday, Saturday and next Tuesday. And a source said: 'Banning drones above the gigs is the right move. "All it takes is something to go wrong or someone who doesn't know how to properly fly a drone to make a mistake. "If one falls into the crowd people could end up badly hurt.' A Civil Aviation Authority spokesman said the ban was 'in the public interest'. Up to 210,000 fans overall are expected to flock to the sold-out mega-gigs. They face strict rules with metal water bottles, hip flasks, large bags and umbrellas among banned items. And any louts found with knives, drugs and pyros will be reported to cops. Hundreds of Oasis fans queue down Scots street to bag gig merch as buzz begins ahead of Edinburgh shows A Scottish Rugby spokesman said security was 'of the upmost importance' at the gigs. The concerts coincide with the capital's world-famous Fringe arts bash of more than 3,800 shows. Police said a 'proportionate and considered plan' is in place' to keep visitors safe. A force spokesman added: 'We are working to ensure the safety of those attending events and minimise disruption.'
