1.  The Grid Alien's (Tom Woodruff Jr.) costume from Paul W.S. Anderson's sci-fi action film AVP: Alien vs. Predator. The Grid Alien was the lead xenomorph protecting the Alien Queen from the Predators sent to Earth to prove themselves in the Antarctic pyramid. The creature was played by Tom Woodruff Jr., who worked with special-effects creator Stan Winston on Aliens, and also worked on Alien3 and Alien Resurrection.
   
   Created by the artists at Amalgamated Dynamics Incorporated, the creature costume is made up of a foam latex bodysuit painted black, and closed at the rear with a zip and press studs. The head has a resin under skull, with a foam latex skin and a plastic dome, with animatronics built into the creature's lips, jaw and resin teeth. The monstrous inner jaw is made of rubber. The dome and shoulders have a cross hatch pattern applied to create the creature's 'grid' scarring, with additional green blood in the recesses. The spines running down the back and along the tail are reinforced with plastic and wood within, with metal armatures running through the creature's fingers, which are dressed with resin claws. The tail ends in a sharp rubber spike. The foam latex shows some signs of aging, including brittle sections around the lips, which have peeled back to reveal the wire-controlled animatronics within, and tears to the foam latex on the arms, hands, legs and tail. The creature costume is displayed on a custom mannequin display and is sold with a letter of authenticity from ADI, signed by co-founders Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff Jr. Dimensions (displayed): 170 cm x 60 cm x 200 cm (67" x 23 ¾" x 78 ¾")
