A Forbidden Planet force field post
MGM, 1956. Nine clear plastic triangular fixtures attached to a silver metal pole which culminates in a circular base, all of which sit atop a locked case which houses the electrical components. The triangles light up and blink when plugged in, and the unit is still in working order. In the film, the crew of the C-57D starship erect the force fields to protect them from evil forces, which would vaporize when caught between two force fields. The force field posts are featured prominently when the Id monster is attacking, and the outline of the usually invisible Id monster can be seen clashing with the force fields. Accompanied by a set design photo featuring two force field posts.
14.75 x 18.5 x 65 in.
