\nC-3PO from the Star Wars<\/a> universe is one of the most recognizable movie characters of all time. It should hardly be a surprise that all the well-heeled Star Wars fanatics would be ready to shell out hundreds of thousands of dollars if an actual C-3PO movie prop is up for grabs. That\u2019s exactly what happened! Anthony Daniels, the 78-year-old British actor who has portrayed the droid for four decades, recently sold a C-3PO head through the auction house Propstore Auction<\/a>. The incredibly rare and highly collectible piece of movie memorabilia ended up selling for a whopping $843,750. According to Propstore officials, the head was featured on camera in multiple scenes in the 1983 Star Wars movie Return of the Jedi, which was directed by Richard Marquand and written by Lawrence Kasdan and George Lucas.
