Useable Prop Replicas

hick's colonial marine bronica lighter from aliens :cool

 

[mattycsi]

I got the BMF wallet and a Timex Iron Man watch from Stranger Than Fiction.

I assembled a replica of Ray Stantz's hardhat with headlamp from Ghostbusters 2...

It later proved highly useful when I was on a ladder, changing burnt-out bulbs in a ceiling fixture in a windowless bathroom.

The burnt-out lightbulb had separated from the metal piece that screws into the socket, so I had to have the breaker off, plunging the whole room into darkness.

I was very glad I had presence of mind to remember this prop, which gave me both hands free while aiming the light wherever my eyes were looking.

I made a working replica of the BSG CIC Hall Phones, it sits on my computer desk, is connected to our landline, makes and receives calls.

Very kewl!

Half life crowbar. Easiest prop to make, just add some red spray paint to an old crowbar.

 

[Fenris]

I use my bullwhip a lot during our monthly whip meets.

 

[PHArchivist]

The Porsche Designs desk lamp used in the admiral's meeting in Star Trek VI.

Several knives, but the only thing I use every every day is my Seiko S234 series pulsemeter watch (Aliens).

, but the only thing I use every every day is my Seiko S234 series pulsemeter watch (Aliens).

Same here!

We've also got a meat tenderizer mallet that was used in the Starship Troopers sequel that my wife uses.

I have Kirks clock that was next to his bed in his stateroom in Trek VI.

 

[HyruleInfantry]

Blues Brothers sun glasses

 

[Rook]

Aside from the numerous clothing and T-shirts I own from TV, movie, etc. I suppose the ones used most are:

- Athelstan's bracelet given to him by Ragnar (never take it off) from Vikings
- My Indy MKVII bag was my primary diaper bag for quick trips out with my newborn twins (so manly)
- Most importantly I have had numerous reconstructive knee surgeries after blowing them out in highschool football and complications since and have used on occasion both of my House M.D. canes, the black one with the flames and the maple one with the horn handle tip whenever the old injuries flare up.

 

[Fenris]

I used to use my Fertility Idol as a hat stand... And I used to wear the hat a lot too (but it's a costume, not a prop).

 

[PHArchivist]

If you all are including watches, I suppose my Omega counts.

 

[TomVDJ]

I sometimes use the Arc Reactor that's on my desk as a flashlight, if the batteries of my actual flashlight are dead and my son dropped some toys under the couches again...
Apart from that, also the McGuyver Victorinox Army Knife (although he didn't use Victorinox all the time).

 

[GeneralFROSTY]

I can't think off the top of my head any props per-se, but my Indiana Jones gear is pretty "real world" as far as usability. It's all real clothing (as apposed to walking around in Stormtrooper armor on a casual basis) you can go anywhere in it, even without the weapons belt and whip, the satchel is functional (came in handy on several vacations) and of course the hat, jacket, shirt, pants and boots can be worn and enjoyed anywhere on any day - regardless of being at a "con" or cosplay event.

 

[Trotsky]

I wear my Akubra Fed IV all the time, in brown and grey.
