Martian Death Ray Prototype Pistol from Mars Attacks (Warner Bros., 1996).

Original static alien ray gun constructed of cast resin expertly painted in bright green with crackle finish, black and metallic silver. Measuring approx. 14.25" x 5" x 2." This life-size prop ray gun was created in pre-production. The chosen props were used in sequences when the CGI or stop motion miniature aliens were replaced by live-action aliens as in the end sequences when aliens are defeated, and their corpses and weapons are strewn about the land. An example of the whimsical design of all the alien technology seen in Tim Burton's Sci-Fi comedy. Exhibiting production wear including some intentional paint crazing. Comes with a COA from Heritage Auctions. From the Collection of Greg Jein.
