* ''Film/{{Gremlins}}''. In a scene at a science fiction convention, Robby the Robot (from ''ForbiddenPlanet'') and the time machine from the 1960 film version of ''[[Film/TheTimeMachine1960 The Time Machine]]'' appear. They both act the way they do in the films: Robby talks as he did in ''ForbiddenPlanet'' and the time machine can actually go through time.

** Strickfaden's equipment even made ''audio'' cameos -- in ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'' and later Lucasfilm productions, after sound designer Ben Burtt met Strickfaden and made audio recordings of his equipment in use. One particularly notable example is ''Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk'', where it provides some of the sounds of Nazi equipment malfunctioning under the influence of the Ark of the Covenant.

* ''Series/BabylonFive'' had an unintentional example: They needed a space suit for the episode "Babylon Squared", and went to buy one from a prop company they dealt with. The only spacesuit available was the one from ''TwoThousandTenTheYearWeMakeContact''.

* '''Example A:''' A DMC [=DeLorean=] appearing in a ''Film/DieHard'' movie. This model of car is famous for being that of the car from ''Film/BackToTheFuture'', however this is an ordinary [=DeLorean=]. '''Not a Cameo Prop.'''

* ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever'' contains a lot of these, usually as part of TakeThat jabs at other shooters. For instance, at one level you find Master Chief's PowerArmor from ''{{Halo}}''; in others, you discover ''Franchise/DeadSpace'' SpaceMarine helmets (there is an achievement for finding all of them).

Let's say an episode of a show involves Bob going to an auction and winning the Ruby Slippers worn by JudyGarland when filming ''Film/TheWizardOfOz''. The rest of the episode might involve Bob wearing them (much to everyone's amusement), and even reenacting scenes from the movie. Almost always, he'll end up losing them in the end.
