Within a movie, there are props and costumes that needs to make a film satisfying and believable to look at.
The Metrazort prop has already been described, but the base in which the Metrazort has been animated in front of consists of two large Lego plates and a enormous photo with it too, the photo anyway is help up by 4 stacks of 4 spot lego bricks, 2 at the front and two at the back.
It has been demolished and it's parts will be recycled for future films.
The costume Josh was wearing just consists of a camoflage suit and green trowsers, it may be the only things that come out of the Military prop-box, but it is satisfying enough for the effect to work to make the audience believe he really is a soldier.
The costume Mother was wearing has a similar story and effect to Josh's costume, omly it achieves the effects of a female general as it cosists of trowsers, a general suit, and a hat.
The hat may not be accurate to the real thing, but I presume that the audience would get the idea as to what is meant to be represented.
All costume related objects are in the box at the prop department of the WBS, waiting for another use.
The wedding box and ring may have short screen timing, but it is important to the plot as it starts with a failed proposal and the soldier's rage over that failed proposal.
The ring (owned by mum) is still wearable, but the red box was smashed hard by Josh during the film, ensuring that it is in a rubbish pile at Slough at the moment.
Finally is he Gun, now when I first examined the Military prop-box, I was not impressed due to how un-proffessional or how cheap those things are, tthe Gun itself is rather a old fashioned toy western gun, I may not be satisfied by it, but it represented it's purpose and without camera close-ups on it the audience won't even know it's a fake.
Like all items in the prop box, it's in there waiting to be used by someone else.
