In the world of Star Wars fans and collectors, excitement is buzzing!

A C-3PO head, worn in the movie “Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi,” is expected to be sold for a staggering one million dollars at an auction in Los Angeles.

This isn’t the first time a piece of the beloved golden droid has been up for grabs; another C-3PO head from the original trilogy was sold just a few months ago.

The special headpiece, which lights up, comes from the collection of Anthony Daniels, the actor who brought C-3PO to life on the big screen and in TV shows.

Daniels hopes these iconic pieces of movie history will find new homes where they’ll be cherished and appreciated by Star Wars enthusiasts eager to own a real slice of the saga’s legacy.

The auction, organized by Propstore, isn’t just about Star Wars. Fans of other blockbuster films will have the chance to bid on some amazing items, both in person and online. From Wolverine’s leather jacket in the first X-Men movie to Marty McFly’s guitar from “Back to the Future,” and even Gimli’s double-headed axe from “The Lord of the Rings,” there’s something for every movie buff. Harry Potter fans can also get in on the action, with Harry’s wand from “The Prisoner of Azkaban” expected to draw bids between 10,000 and 20,000 dollars.

The auction event, set to take place from 12th to the 14th March.
