Fabulous and practically complete screen-worn Dr. Doom costume worn by Julian McMahon as Victor von Doom or his stunt double in the 2007 film Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. The costume was made by Spectral Motion of California and constructed from rubber, resin, metal, and foam. Costume includes: the one-piece undergarment with Velcro and buckle attachments; neck covering; foam sleeves; the two-piece hard rubber and resin chest piece; leather pants; hard shoulder covers; black leather belt; foam overlaid black boots; leg armor; foam and plastic gloves; and the production made prototype full-length black cape. When originally acquired, the costume was missing its mask, with a replacement constructed by a professional propmaker using photos and reference materials. Some of these pieces were built for the ‘Ultra Dr. Doom’ for the end of the film, but was cut from the final version. Accompanied by a 2014 letter of authenticity which states: “This costume was produced for the…Fox movie and various pieces were worn by either actor Julian McMahon or his stunt double.” Also included are two original manila wardrobe tags, one labeled “Stunt Doom Leather Pants #2.” In fine condition. A rare offering of one of Marvel’s greatest villains, who battled not only the Fantastic Four, but Spider-Man, the Avengers, and Iron Man. RR Auction COA.
