The costume was up for sale as part of an auction organized by The Prop Store, a U.K. memorabilia company. The offering of more than 500 costumes, props and other pieces of movie history brought in more than £1.5 million ($1.95 million), auctioneers said.

“We managed to get some world-record prices there, which is very exciting for us,” said Stephen Lane, chief executive officer of the Prop Store. “The activity across the board was pretty unprecedented.”

A TIE fighter helmet from Star Wars: Episode IV—A New Hope (the original 1977 film) gavelled in at £210,000 ($273,294) which the store says is a world record. A stunt mask worn by the Sloth character in The Goonies sold for £36,000 ($46,850). These prices include a 20 percent buyer’s premium (the auctioneer’s cut) but don’t include shipping.

It's probably a safe bet that an imposing caped crusader won't be ringing the doorbell to trick-or-treat anytime soon. “These don’t get worn by anybody,” Lane said. “They really end up in glass display cases.”

About 400 bidders from 27 countries actively participated in the auction, which drew interest from investment firms in New York and Hong Kong, archivists working for corporate and private collectors, and museums, company officials said. The pieces up for grabs ranged from full costumes to ID badges, and included annotated scripts, directors’ chairs, prop swords and guns.

A clapperboard—that iconic, black-and-white sign used by filmmakers to sync up audio and visuals—from Jawswent for £84,000 ($109,326), while one from Star Wars: Episode V—The Empire Strikes Back sold for £33,000 ($42,950).

Not everything from the 500-plus lot sold. A couple of hulking costumes from Alien Vs. Predator(2004) that had been estimated to be worth between £20,000 ($26,033) and £60,000 ($78,099) went unclaimed. They’re still available, Lane said.
