Good place to sit and take a nice tram tour toward the end. And it is fun to see some of the things in the prop warehouse. Although the last time we were there, I made a point of lingering in the warehouse to take photos and there weren't a lot of things that were recognizable. The Binford racing lawnmower was there, and a few things from Honey I Shrunk the Kid (I think) and props from the old Lottery film that used to be part of the tour and now isn't. I can see why a lot of people just wander through the warehouse like a queue and not really pay attention to what's in there.
My mom and I flipped when we saw the Binford mower. Home Improvement is hands down the family favourite so it makes us smile to walk through the warehouse and see the prop on display.

That was one of my favorites too. But it has been so long ago now, a lot of people don't even know what it is. I did see a few people point and smile at it the last time though...

OHMYGOD. He's one of the best, I know... My mother and I adore him. I grew up with Home Improvement so it's been my favourite since I can remember. My mom and I still watch it together and die laughing.

Anybody know if those props are real or reproductions?
Hoping to go back to the Magic soon.

As far as I recall, all of them are real, they are not exactly iconic but they are props.
