Cooper's (Richard T. Jones) spacesuit from Paul W.S. Anderson's sci-fi horror Event Horizon. Cooper wore his spacesuit as he and Smith (Sean Pertwee) repaired the damaged Lewis and Clark spaceship, before an explosion jettisoned him into space. Cooper had to rapidly expel the air from his spacesuit, using a "purge" device, to return to the Event Horizon.
This detailed costume was custom-made for the actor and consists of a resin helmet with an acrylic visor; a resin backpack with a built-in, working fan (operated by a switch beneath the backpack) to keep the wearer cool during filming; a chest plate detailed with Cooper's name and suit number; a thick padded jacket with matching pants, bearing yellow stripes used to identify Cooper during extra-vehicular operations; a pair of heavy duty boots; a pair of leather gloves; and a leather belt.
The suit features intricate 12V battery-powered light-up detailing inside and out, including dual lights on the helmet as well as lights on the soles of the boots which change from red to green via individual switches. Lights on the back of the backpack also illuminate, displaying the suit's oxygen level.
Character name badges are sewn onto the main costume, along with a US flag patch on the left sleeve, and a round yellow patch for "The Lewis and Clark Search and Rescue Ship" on the right. The costume is presented on a custom-made mannequin.
Contains electronics; see electronics notice in the Buyer's Guide.
