Model Miniature “Frontline Morale Destroyer”
DEATH MACHINE (1994)

A model miniature “Frontline Morale Destroyer” from Stephen Norrington’s Death Machine. This particular model was used for the scene in which Sam Raimi (John Sharian) blew the robotic killing machine away with a guided missile, throwing it through the walls of the CHAANK executive offices. The shot was achieved by dropping the model vertically through miniature sets.

Made of fibreglass with a metal armature, the model features an array of tubing running from the monster’s back. Articulation allows the model a forward charging motion, with rods used to support the head and arms. Decals are applied on the hydraulic components on the frame.

The model shows significant wear but remains in overall good condition. The item is supplied with an original UK quad poster and a custommade display base featuring an illuminated version of the film’s logo. Dimensions: 79 cm x 48 cm x 70 cm (31” x 19” x 27½”)
