If you won the lottery, what props would you get.

I wouldn't tell anyone, but there would be signs...

Sadly he waited too long to get his own. When he died his son shared that Sean Connery had recently decided to finally buy himself a DB5. His son had to convince him. It took a while to find a mint one and it was black, so they had it painted the correct color. His son said by the time he got it he started to be ill so he had little to no time to enjoy it. I was surprised they decided to sell it after he died but some lucky fan has an amazing keepsake. Not a Bond used one, but one owned by the man himself.

I miss Sean Connery. He retired too soon. I am one of the few who like League of Extraordinary Gentleman. Minus the dumb CGI bad guy at the end.
 
Speaking of duh! I can't believe I forgot this. Although I love the classic DB5 my Eaglemoss model is good, If I ever get around to building it.

May favorite Bond car is the Living Daylights Aston Martin V8 Vantage Series II. It was my favorite ever. Best gadgets and I just love it so I would have a real one with all the bond gadgets I love from all the bond films and even have it convert to a submarine if I could.

Wow. Impressive list. You’d need to win a super ball lottery, which has been building up for months. And then you’d need to invest 1/2 of it in order to generate enough gains to cover the costs of storing the props. Haha. Or rent some empty space at George Lucas’s museum.
 
Display rooms. Money is no object so storing props is not allowed. :lol:

Ah. So we're talking building a duplicate of the White House with it's 132 rooms. (I looked it up!)
Just so you could display all props from the 132 of your favorite movies and TV series. Got it. Sounds like a Great Plan.
Gonna need that 1.6 Billion jackpot or better.
 
I'm not much of a prop collector person.

Being a pure cosplayer, my things would be costumes and costume accessories I can wear.

Things like:

1) upgrades to my Old Ben Kenobi outfit:
-robes made out of the correct fabrics
-a genuine-parts Old Ben Kenobi lightsabre
-bespoke leather boots

2) upgrades to my Dr Jones Senior outfit:
-new suit made of the correct Harris Tweed fabric
-new glasses
-a hand-written Grail Diary

3) upgrades to my Chief Jim Hopper outfit:
-the correct Worth & Worth hat
-a real Colt Python
-AND THIS!

I would find a really good metal working shop and commission a Cap shield that is absolutely screen accurate (separately machined rings that can be anodized and not just painted etc.) but make it proportionally correct for my size (I am not as tall as Chris Evans). This is the sort of eccentric project that a billionaire can afford.

The other project would be a lifesize Dog Alien sculpted and painted by Yoshihiko Sano. His paint jobs are just amazing!

And how about a lifesize all-metal Robocop 2 Cain replica for my garden that scares away the neighbors…
 
Full scale "functional" speederbike built over a dirt bike chassis or the like so I could ride it through the woods.

The interior of Obi-Wan's hut from ANH, fully furnished.

Falcon cockpit and gun ports, maybe even the hold area with the chessboard and seating.

Though far past those ideas, if I had that kind of money and I had paid off any debts for family/ friends, invested wisely, and given to charities I would use most of it to fund a film adaptation of my novel and build a film studio to help other independent film makers to shoot their movies. I would want to do what Lucas did and build something outside the Hollywood system.
 
I’d have a full-size Rick Deckard apartment with everything no-expense perfectly replicated. Outside I would have a full-size flying Spinner and finally I would track down Dan Lanigan and throw money at him until he handed over the one and only hero blaster.
Deckard apartment would be great. A pity the views from the balcony cannot be reproduced.
 
They can be reproduced if you have enough money. Check out the incredible real-time 3D stagecraft of ‘the volume’ they film Mandalorian inside.
