Orange fleece jacket with turtleneck shirts and snow pants, worn by Rodney McKay in his initial scenes in the pilot episode of Atlantis. Jacket size M/M. Shirts size L/G. Snow pants size M/M.
Provenance
Taken by Propworx staff directly from The Bridge Studios, where MGM’s Stargate series were produced.
Antarctic costume worn by actor David Hewlett as “Rodney McKay” in his first scenes of the Stargate Atlantis pilot episode, “Rising”. As brilliant as he is disagreeable, Rodney McKay began working for the Stargate program remotely from Area 51, called in to put out fires at Stargate Command as needed. He was an obvious choice to lead the science team of the Atlantis expedition, and his knowledge of Ancient technology also played a key role in Sheppard’s unit.
