A stunt flamethrower from Ben Stiller's Hollywood satire Tropic Thunder. Cody (Danny McBride), the trigger-happy pyrotechnics expert on Damien Cockburn's (Steve Coogan) war film, brought to Cockburn's Vietnam set a flamethrower that ultimately fell into Four Leaf Tayback's (Nick Nolte) hands.

This stunt flamethrower pack is comprised of a gray rubber gas gun and tank modeled from a Muller Opladen flamethrower, spray-painted "Cody Effects," and connected with black rubber wire to green and brown military-style canvas straps with an aluminum back.

The flamethrower exhibits visible rust and some bending to the rubber from production use and age, but it remains in good overall condition.

Estimate: $3,000 - 5,000
