The staff looks very detailed and cool! I underestimated how big it would be when described as I thought it would be about pencil sized. It's much heavier than I expected but a benefit in my opinion as it feels sturdier. The stand itself is a little flimsy (would put it a 4.5/5 but can't do half stars) but otherwise, a cool staff to have as someone who enjoyed the new Wukong game!

This is a niche product. It’s part of the monkey king/Wu Kong mythology, that has been promoted heavily in the recent months with the video game that was released this fall. This is very nicely made. It’s got a good weight to it looks good. I really like that. It came with a little stand so this could sit nicely on table top or in a display case.

I love the look of this decoration and am satisfied with it. The slightly misaligned molding is barely noticeable unless you get real close and examine it, but it doesn't impact my enjoyment of the wukong staff. I've even added a fancy chopstick on the top rack since it's pair went missing to add a little extra flair.

This is really nice. It comes in nice collectible packaging. The staff is well made with excellent details. The fit and finish on it is good. The paint work on it is well done. It has a nice solid weight to it. I'm happy with this, and it is a good value for what you get.

I recently got the YLCCYABC Sun Wukong Staff, and it's absolutely fantastic! This black myth-inspired weapon is not only visually stunning but also incredibly well-crafted. The attention to detail in the design of the Bronzecloud Ruyi staff is impressive, capturing the essence of the legendary character beautifully.The staff is lightweight yet sturdy, making it perfect for martial arts practice. I appreciate how comfortable it feels when performing various techniques and moves. The length is just right, providing good balance and control during training sessions.One of the standout features is its sleek black finish, which adds an elegant touch. It looks great in action and would definitely make an eye-catching display piece as well. Plus, the material feels durable, so I’m confident it will last through rigorous use.Overall, I highly recommend the YLCCYABC Sun Wukong Staff for anyone interested in martial arts, cosplay, or simply as a collector's item. It's a high-quality product that delivers both in performance and aesthetics!

I was surprised to see this item show up on Amazon, as I had previously seen something similar on another platform. I’ve wanted to own a Wukong staff ever since Black Myth: Wukong exploded onto the gaming scene. This product is supposed to replicate the famous staff wielded by Wukong in the game, which made it special for me as a long-time Sun Wukong fan. With that in mind, I decided to order one and had high expectations for this collectible/decor item. I appreciated that there were three color options to choose from, and I opted for the bronze version.When the item finally arrived, I was excited to unbox it. The packaging was beautiful, featuring a cool design box with Chinese calligraphy motif. However, my enthusiasm faded once I opened the box. The staff is only slightly longer than an average plastic straw, is made of metal, and is heavier than expected for its size. It felt nice in hand, and in the middle section there are five “ancient-style” Chinese characters engraved, which I assume is the name of the staff, "Ru Yi Jin Gu Bang."Comparing it to the game art, the design on both ends of the staff includes a dragon coiled around intricate oriental patterns. However, the detailing was not as clean or refined on the actual product or as shown in the product images. A visible seam can be seen where the two halves of the mold meet detracting from the design, and in some sections, the molded pattern doesn’t even align properly. The middle section of the pattern is supposed to feature loops that are ‘hollow’, but on the staff, some were filled in, and in some areas, there is a thick layer of black lacquer, which gives the staff its bronze color filling in the patterns.Additionally, the stand that comes with the staff is made of several thin plastic parts that fit together with joints. While it holds the staff up, it's flimsy and falls apart easily if bumped. It looks small and unimpressive—far from the cool or epic display piece I was hoping for.Overall, I’m disappointed with this product. I had high hopes for this collectible, and while it feels good in hand with a nice weight to it, the overall quality is a letdown. The molding of the pattern and design are poorly executed, and the one I received is far below an acceptable standard. I don’t mind companies capitalizing on trends or fads, but I at least expect a decent-quality product given the price asked for the product.
