Thread: Favorite type of prop

Tweet

What is your favorite type of prop? Mine are the full size bloody zombies that you can lay down on the groung or lean them up against a tree, house, ect. Whats your's?

Blucky's. Yep, everyone hates them for being cheap. They are the unloved bald headed step child of Halloween who has to live in the shadow of his more famous siblings, like Bucky.

What I like is the challenge to make them more than what they are ..... Cheap! My favorite compliment is "I never would have guessed that was a Blucky".

I could sit and watch Flying Crank Ghosts on Youtube all day long. They are by far my favorite. I love their grace and mystery.
I am almost finished a freestanding support so I can have one in my graveyard without needing a ceiling. I just hope I don't disappoint myself.

Flying Crank Ghosts and handmade groundbreakers are my two favs.

I've not built a FCG (yet), but like another poster...I love looking them up on Youtube. Wonderful props.

I love my FCG.

I would say for me it is PVC static dummies/figures. They are just so easy and quick to make. I am somewhat impatient and like to see the finished product fast and they allow that.

I also like the FCGs. I tried a few years back to make one but couldn't figure the crank part out. I ended up breaking down last year and buying one and let me say I was not disappointed! And now that I have one to look it, I might be able to finish the one I started.

I would say my FCG gets the most compliments. It just looks mystical. Then my zombie in a barrel. I like anything that deals with pneumatics. Gives me ideas from year to year.

This is really an impossible question for me to answer. I really don't think I have a favorite type. I really like the different aspects of each that I own. As far as a type though, I amm very partial to ghost type characters and zombies.And I love scarecrows and pumpkins. Pneumatics are great, but the ol handy dandy wiper motor os so easy to use and so versitile.
