Costume and props from sci-fi comedy Paul on display...

In 2011's science fiction comedy, Paul, two British comic book nerds played by Nick Frost and Simon Pegg encounter an alien outside Area 51 when traveling across America on a UFO pilgrimage.

Here's the outfit worn by Nick Frost as 'Clive Gollings' (with Costume Design by Nancy Steiner), plus original props from the movie, on display at Universal Studios Hollywood on May 8, 2015.

Personally I love Flash Gordon, so that 'Ming the Merciless' t-shirt is priceless, and the alien in question resembles the look of the 'Roswell Greys', although this is only a stand-in prop for the computer-generated screen version (who was voiced by Seth Rogen).

Plus be sure to check out more screen-used props from Paul from a previous visit to the NBC Universal Experience archive exhibit, and if you're a fan of the comedy duo, you can also check out these costumes and props from The World's End, Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz movies.
