Here is a project I currently have in the works and created a kickstarter campaign to help fund it.

I have all the bats sourced and ready to go from the UK and the laser engraver set to go as well.

3 very unique bats are reserved and will go to Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg, and Nick Frost.

Fun idea, are filmmakers chipping in at all?

No word on if they are going to chip in. That would be really fantastic.

I told Edgar that I'm giving him and the other guys bats because I'm such a big fan of the film!

They look great, great idea, but the price point makes it a pass for me. I hope it goes for you though, good luck.

Signed by the three would make me re-interested. Cool that Edgar likes them (not surprised).
Can be an online release PB when I am not trying to get the piece if I am available. Just ask.

Would you guys be interested if I added in a perk for a nice piece of laser etched wood hand finished with stain and blood?

It would be the same dimensions as the bat and go for around $125
Edition size of 25.

Similar to Horkey True Grit wood.
