With Fallout’s success and season-two renewal, it’s been seeming ever more unlikely that Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy would get a chance to revisit their previous sci-fi series, Westworldcancelled by HBO after four seasons, despite talk about how season five had already been plotted out. Well, here’s another nail in that robotic coffin, although it is quite cool to behold: Heritage Auctions’ upcoming sale of screen-used (some including blood spatter!) Westworld props, costumes, and random bits and bobs that brought the series to life.

From : “The hosts that populate Westworld are developed and built in the depths of the Mesa Hub. This ring and host body represent part of that process in which the host is dipped into a large bath of synthetic goo which forms its skin. Known as the Vitruvian Man, because of its resemblance to the Da Vinci drawing, this ring and host body can be seen throughout the series.”

Westworld fans immediately recognized Evan Rachel Wood’s season-four character “Christina” as a familiar face: clearly, this was a new iteration of our old pal Dolores Abernathy. It took Christina a few episodes to figure herself out—but she looked incredibly chic while doing so, in these form-fitting outfits.

If any single costume screams Westworld, it’s this: the blue dress we saw Evan Rachel Wood’s Dolores wearing as she made her daily loop through Sweetwater in season one; the dress popped up in later seasons too. “Dolores can be seen wearing this blue dress through her personal journey for consciousness and freedom,” the catalogue reminds us. “The blue color of the dress is in reference to Lewis Carroll’s character, ‘Alice’ who fell through the rabbit hole on her own journey.”

Before you get too excited: no, this vehicle (frequently seen throughout season four) is not street legal. However, there is a nifty memory from the season finale: a “bloody handprint” visible on one of the otherwise pristine seat backs.

Season one saw Thandiwe Newton’s character Maeve Millay begin to become self-aware to her many deaths and repairs amid the frequently bloody environs of Sweetwater’s Mariposa Saloon. Every time she woke up, however, her signature fuchsia gown looked as new as this one here: not one bullet hole or stab wound!
