I would like to pick one of these up for cheap and clean it up for a display piece.
its nice that they put some wear to this, but its a step that they didn't need to do. The molds as you see by those pictures from the china facility are polished steel molds which means these would have been perfect, so somewhere along that process they are running it under some wheels
that it comes attached to a stand instead of being a holding stand just means they still don't know what the customer wants versus what the lawyers want.

I've been surprised at how many people don't get this prop. Yes itls cheesy as far as what it's made of. The paint job is pretty cool though. They made it scratched up because that is exactl how they look in the game. If you have it' throw a rang then walk up to it and zoom in. It has the exact same scratches.
I thought that was pretty good attention to detail considering this is a cheap addition to a video game.
Saying that the first thing I thought of was getting one and make a cast and make the back match the front and give it a little heft.

I also decided to make this a bit more pretty.
I removed the stand with nail polish remover, and then took some sandpaper and gently sanded all the edges where it should take some wear-and-tear. The plastic is grey underneath so it passes as metal unless it's on close inspection. I'm probably not going to bother to paint it because it looks decent on the shelf already.
It snaps back onto the stand nicely.

If anyone is going to make a 'nicer' version of this, go metal or don't do it at all. If you're going to take the time, go all the way.

This is on my list of things to do. I have a few projects to get cracking on but I have an idea of how to make it rotate... I just have no way of making metal ones... They'd have to be resin, but again it'll take me awhile.
