Like who feels that their props need to stay pretty under glass and not be touched and who actually uses their props?
I'm a mix. There are some props like my lightsabers that I can not put down. I'm an FX guy and if they have functional guts why let them collect dust on a shelf? I like to use these props for their intended purpose because that's what props are for. So what if my lightsabers get a little weathered from use or playing around? My LDM v2 has been accidentally tossed around from spinning it! But I have to much fun with it to stop! But that does not mean I abuse them. I'm careful as much as I can be and take care of them.
BUT there are other props, such as my CFO ROTJ Vader helmet, that are far to expensive and rare to let them be used as props so they sit on display.
Where do you stand with your props. Use them or display them?
