Heritage Auctions’ 2025 Star Wars Day Entertainment Signature Auction has items available including Pedro Pascal’s helmet from The Mandalorian, a complete set of 1979 Sears-exclusive Kenner action figures still sealed in their packages, and a rare “24 sheet” billboard poster dating back to 1977, but the auctio also includes an incredibly rare piece of C-3PO – his foot, as seen onscreen in The Empire Strikes Back.

“the costume piece is constructed of vacuum formed plastic ribbed shell, plated in metallic gold and expertly studio finished. Measuring 12″ x 3.75″ x 5″, the foot’s bottom is open, as the shell is designed to fit over an actor’s shoe. The foot is an Anthony Daniels signature costume piece and represents a lightweight alternative in the evolution of the C-3PO costume.

There is a small, clean production made pinhole in the toe for attachment to a shoe beneath it. The back of the shell is intentionally split to allow a foot and shoe to slip into it.”
