Ted, Orgasmatron was the Sleeper, Woody Allan. I think the one you posted from Barbarella was the Machine of Excess, or something.
It would be no good anyway, she wore it out... ;D

I had forgotten that Spielberg owned Rosebud.

That is one hell of a sled!!!

He actually owns #3 of 4.  3 and 4 were not used in the movie.  I believe 1 and 2 were destroyed.  Can't remember what happened to 4.

From The NY Times, 1982.

So very cool!   clap clap

Sled of 'Citizen Kane' Brings $60,500

Published: June 11, 1982


Rosebud, the sled made for Orson Welles's classic 1941 film ''Citizen Kane,'' was bought Wednesday afternoon by Steven Spielberg, the director-producer, for $55,000 at Sotheby Park Bernet.

The addition of the 10 percent buyer's fee made the total price $60,500.

The sled, one of three balsa versions made for the final scene of the movie, is the only one that survived the filming. The other two were burned in filming a scene in which a workman tosses the sled into a furnace.

Describing ''Citizen Kane'' as ''the most classic movie ever made,'' Mr. Spielberg, who bid by telephone from Los Angeles, said the sled was ''a symbolic emblem of quality in the film business.''

Of course now it would be auctioned as coming from the Steven Spielberg collection - the association with Citizen Kane would be the lesser enticement

If it was at 60k today, I would buy it in a heartbeat.  Unfortunately, it will never happen again.
