Princess Leia's bikini sells for nearly $100,000

One of Princess Leia’s slave bikinis she actually wore in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi sold for $96,000 at auction yesterday. No news on who bought it. The costume came complete with the collar and several links in the chain Leia used to strangle Jabba the Hutt. A 16″ model of Leia’s Blockade Runner seen in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope went for $450,000, the highest auction price ever for Star Wars memorabilia ever.


Other items sold in the same Profiles In History auction include one of Indiana Jones’s bull whips ($204,000) and George Reeves’s Superman costume from the 1950s TV series ($216,000).
