A maquette of Maximilian from the production of Gary Nelson's sci-fi film The Black Hole. The hovering robot Maximilian confronted the crew of the USS Palomino when they boarded the USS Cygnus, before it was ordered to stand down by Dr Hans Reinhardt ( Maximilian Schell ). Maximilian was designed by Disney Imagineer George McGinnis.

This 1:4 scale maquette was produced as a reference model for refining coloration and shape prior to building full-size versions. It is made of fiberglass and resin and painted in varying shades of red, with gray detailing. The maquette perfectly captures the angular shape and sinister bearing of the full-scale model. Its intricate detailing includes bolts, panels, hinges and dual lift fans.

The maquette is displayed on a custom made black plastic stand. It has minor wear from production use, including minor fissures in the paintwork, and shows signs of previous repairs. Dimensions: 24" x 13.5" x 9.5" ( 61 cm x 34 cm x 24 cm ).

Value: $10,000.
