What do they do with all those alien costumes, or hundreds of sets of Samurai armor, for example? Considering all the films that have been made, there must be a lot of leftover props and costumes...

Studios do keep quite a lot of them or sell some (via auctions or ebay and it depends on how well the film did, or didnt, do) others are 'recycled' (i.e. either re-used again in a different film with a few changes, or completely stripped and the bits re-used) and some are just thrown away. This is just according to some of the film magazines, books and articles I've read though!

Although, some have been known to have been "liberated" by extras, and the lead actors themselves, as souveniers!

They sell a lot of it. I know they use a lot of sets, though, for other movies and television shows. I know that a lot of the major costumes and props are auctioned off for lots of money.

Ive seen from time to time that they have sales on costumes and props.So they must keep them in warehouses on the Movie lots.
