Heck no.
Button cell batteries drain real quickly from peak brightness.
My 1/6 Iron Man figures barely last any time at all.

I don't have anything that takes button batteries except for this (aside from pc mobo, key fob, etc.), and I haven't displayed mine yet.
Haven't used button batteries for years. Disappointing they haven't made any advances recently. Based on how quickly these discharge, you think it would be wise to go with rechargables?

Yep! I don't bother turning them off once they're on, as that would be a pain in the ass. But I don't bother replacing the eyes and repulsor batteries till the arc reactor drains away. I imagine I'll eventually just keep it unlit most of the time, but that time hasn't come yet.

This morning, my wife burnt some bacon. 🙁
The bit of smoke made for an excellent photo opportunity. 🙂

Smoked Chitauri. 
Seriously dude, I don't know what you do for a living, but you've got a second career as a photographer! Fantastic.

That photo does a great job of highlighting the paint job. A lot of photos of the statue don't do the metallic paint justice. Great job!
