A24 is auctioning Everything Everywhere All At Once’s butt-plug trophy

Remember when film distributor A24 made international news by auctioning off the elaborate flower dress from Ari Aster’s horror movie MidsommarThe Furby Adam Sandler, a bling-encrusted Furby Adam Sandler, sells in Uncut GemsOther notable props include: The company is doing it again, this time with costumes, props, and “mementos” from Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert’s terrific Oscar-nominated hit You Can Have Everything at Once. If you ever wanted your very own Raccacoonie, one of Jobu Tupaki’s kaleidoscopic costumes, or the divorce papers that Waymond (Best Supporting Actor nominee Ke Huy Quan) serves his long-suffering wife Evelyn (Best Actress nominee Michelle Yeoh), now’s your chance.

If you’re feeling adventurous, you can buy the original butt-plug award that will end up at the centre of some strange martial-arts combat in the middle.

There are three auctions that A24 set up to promote the film, and proceeds will go towards three charities. The first, “Mementos from the Multiverse,” is an odds-and-ends collection of props used in the film, from the Raccacoonie puppet (“your future personal chef for hire!” reads the item description) to the ball gag that director Daniel Scheinert wears as a shame-faced sub in an alternate universe that Evelyn accesses while looking to escape an attacker. (“Gently used,” the listing promises.) The auction will benefit the Asian Mental Health Project.

The second auction, “In Another Life,” benefits the Transgender Law Center and focuses on costumes, including the Elvis suit and temple outfit Stephanie Hsu wears at various points in the movie, Yeoh’s costumes as a kung-fu warrior and a giant baby, and Harry Shum Jr.’s chef outfit for the Raccacoonie sequences.

The third auction, “Laundry and Taxes,” benefits the Laundry Workers Center, in recognition of Evelyn’s work in the movie running a laundromat. The organization fights for laundry workers’ rights and workplace safety. This auction focuses on the IRS segments of the movie, with listings for Jamie Lee Curtis’ frumpy auditor costume and wig (“Dress like your least favorite IRS agent”) and Evelyn’s entire actual laundry delivery van. (“Note this needs new transmission, engine, tires, and serious TLC on the interior. The RV is currently not street legal.”) There’s also a copy of Feets Magazine, with a cover story promising an exclusive on “the silkiest stems in all the land: a reader recap.”

With the movie contending for 11 Oscars, some of these items are likely to spur competitive bidding, particularly items like Waymond’s fanny pack, which has a key role in a big action sequence and gets plenty of closeups of its own. We’re not so sure, though, whether people will be fighting to buy a bowl of inedible prop cookies from the first IRS sequence. These auctions could be your last chance at securing a piece of the movie until A24 stocks its $35 butt-plug awards candles and $60 pet rocks.

A24’s You Can Have Everything at OnceAuctions will open on February 23rd at 12:00 EST and continue until March 2nd.
