"Superman: Flyby" items and descriptions are listed as follows:

Click to view full size Superman Body Armor: This life size prototype body armor/suit was created during pre-production of Superman: Flyby, the title of a Superman film which was never filmed.

The body armor features the projected look of the new Superman suit and may be the only one in existence. A very rare artifact from the doomed production.

Based on a script by J.J. Abrams and with a budget exceeding $200 million, "Superman: Flyby" was to be an origin story that would have featured a Krypton besieged by a civil war between Jor-El and his corrupt brother, Kata-Zor. Before Kata-Zor sentences Jor-El to prison, Kal-El is launched to Earth to fulfill a prophecy.

The auction on all three "Superman: Flyby" items ends 10PM PST on Saturday, March 15th.
