Iconic props that made cameos in other films
Yes, a thread that directs you to an external link. But I thought some of these were interesting enough to incur the wrath of the thread nazis at DVDtalk.

They put an R2D2 on the deck of the pirate ship used in the final sequence of The Goonies.

JJ Abrams and Slusho
Bond going through old props, complete with musical cues in OHMSS
Totoro sneaking into movies, including Toy Story 3
The Pixar "Luxo Jr." starred ball in all of their movies

Freddy's glove in Evil Dead 2.
EDIT: Ah, I see it was in the story.
The same tools used on Bill Murray in Little Shop of Horrors and Jack Nicholson in Batman is interesting, since Nicholson played the same role in the original LSOH.

Doesn't fully count because it was a music video but the Kill Bill Pussy Wagon appears in the Lady Gaga "Telephone" video as Tarantino is a fan (and wanted her for a part in Django Unchained but had to turn it down

In Predator 2, there was an Alien skull in the Predator ship.

R2 is also on the outside of the mothership in Close Encounters.
R2 and C3PO are also depicted on a heiroglyph in the Well of Souls in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
more of a character than a prop but there's a Triffid in E.T's spaceship
supposedly there's a flying shoe in one of the shots of the final battle in Return of the Jedi - I've never seen it though.

Some of my favourites are the rounded, triangular capsules that were in the Genesis cave in Star Trek II. They were also used as the spaceship in Hobgoblins. The prop was actually a Little Tykes space capsule toy box that I had one of when I was a kid.
Another favourite is the car that Robbie The Robot used in Forbidden Planet. It was also used in an episode of Twilight Zone as a "future" car.

The CRS station wagon that James Rebhorn's character drives (and smuggles Michael Douglas into CRS HQ) in The Game is parked in front of the bar in Fight Club during the "I want you to hit me as hard as you can." scene.

Speaking of Blade Runner, the Millennium Falcon appears as a building in the film:
