A Battle droid head and arm from George Lucas' Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.

A Necronomicon from Sam Raimi's action-horror-comedy sequel Army of Darkness. Ash (Bruce Campbell) found himself transported back to the Middle Ages and discovered that the only way to return to his own time was to use the magical Necronomicon book. He travelled to a cemetery where he located three copies. One sucked him into it, one flew around and bit him, and one raised an army of the undead after Ash accidentally muttered the wrong incantation. The Necronomicon was a textbook of magic, originally created by horror and science-fiction writer H.P. Lovecraft, and was first mentioned in his 1924 short story The Hound. A common tome in Lovecraft's work, the Necronomicon was also a feature of all three films in the Evil Dead trilogy. As Army of Darkness is set around the year 1300 AD the book appears cleaner and less warped than those seen in The Evil Dead and Evil Dead II. The book is lightweight and made of a solid piece of biscuit foam, and would have been used for scenes in which Ash carried it under his arm as he ran from the undead. It features a grotesque, horribly mutilated face on the cover. The face has two sets of eyes, a small nose, a mouth, and a set of teeth and fangs beneath the mouth. The book does not open and it has been hand-painted to look worn and aged. The piece has some wear from production use, age and storage. Some of the paintwork has chipped away revealing the yellow biscuit foam underneath, some of which has degraded over time.
