As long as the material names are the same in the figures you can settle for a single MAT pose for the figures. The props need their own MAT pose. And that MAT pose will only work if the props are parented to the figure. This has to do with the fact that materials in figures are listed in the Figure section, while the materials for props are listed (I think) in the Prop section of the .pz2. Different sections, which means that you need different .pz2 files. This is probably the reason why Baron_Vlad_Harkonnen made the swords, jewelry and staves in his fantasy sets as conforming figures, despite the fact that they do not bend. The material collections and MAT poses he supplies with his sets work on each and every figure.

The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
