Mine's on the way, though the one review on Amazon has me worried about the twirling stick being broken.

Saw pics of a keyshot render of the original B&W statue. It shows what they were going for but it didn't work too great in the smaller B&W statue- the bar didn't look straight when painted . Anyway it still works pretty well.

Hey, at least all of the bars are centered unlike on the big version. I still can't figure out why it was molded differently.

I can see the effect they are going for: it's like he's spinning the stick in a more complex way.
I think it could've also worked with some combination of the two statues. But they would've had to mold and paint the sticks in a very precise way for it to work and that is more difficult with mass production.

I love the way they molded the stick, I think it completely makes sense why it’s not centered because the stick falls via gravity as you spin it like he’s spinning it. Same with the “blur” effect, it wouldn’t look solid.
I’m on board for sure, I think it’s an incredible piece!

I do think the spinning baton effect still works really well. Just curious what it would've looked like the other way.

I’m really torn, because it’s rad, but I feel like there are other Batman designs that If they put out I’d rather have.
