A miniature X-wing Starfighter used in a "Star Wars" film sold for over $3 million during an auction over the weekend of items both collected and created by longtime Hollywood model-maker Greg Jein.
Jein not only had an Oscar and Emmy-nominated career making miniature models for nearly half a century, but he also spent a lifetime collecting costumes, props, scripts, artwork, photographs and models from the shows he loved. Jein was a fan of " Star Trek " before he worked on the franchise - and some of the items that he collected were popular at the auction. A filming model of the "SS Botany Bay" vessel from "Star Trek: The Original Series" from the 1960s went for $200,000 while prop devices from that series like a hero phaser went for $187,500 and a tricorder garnered $175,000.
