A helmet worn by actor Pedro Pascal in Season 1 of “The Mandalorian” sold for $137,500 on Sunday to lead Heritage’s May 4 Star Wars auction to set a record for any item related to the show.
Also sold in the auction was a rare Boba Fett “First Shot” action figure — the only graded example known as the “Peach Fett”— which fetched $40,000, a set of 12 carded Kenner figures from the Sears Exclusive set for more than $38,000 and an original 1978 concept poster art of C-3P0 and R2-D2 for $33,750.
The auction reflected the wide breadth of collectible items from the history of “Star Wars,” which has seen rapid growth in recent years.
In addition to screen-used props and rare action figures, the auction also included an original movie poster ($22,500) and a massive autograph 1/1 booklet card ($22,500) featuring signatures from Carrie Fisher (Leia Organa), Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca), Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian), Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker), Harrison Ford (Han Solo), Anthony Daniels (C-3PO) and David Prowse (Darth Vader).
