Terminator 2 Prop Display CPU Brain Chip Prototype of the Screen Used Prop

  
Production made T:800 brain chip prop prototype from Terminator 2 : Judgement Day. Made by legendary FX artist Don Pennington and was obtained directly from his estate. Made of brass, this chip served as the working model for what you see on screen. Ultimately the design was changed to be what we know now, a bit more three dimensional.

This is a true piece of film history. If you'r familiar with this piece you'll know that the ones that have surfaced in the past show their age. The brass tarnished and the red paint in the inlay of it chipped away.

I took great care restoring the chips, matching them to what they first looked like 31 years ago. The brass was cleaned to a bright shine and I painstakingly painted the red back in the inlay of the chip using an enamel paint. The last two photos show the chip before and after my restoration. To my knowledge, no one has offered these restored and ready to display in an acrylic stand. This is a chance to the actual prototype of a prop that has been replicated by countless companies. These are extremely rare and hard to come by. Thanks so much for taking interest.
