I'd love to know this too. I've got my handlebars in, but the little black plastic pieces they gave us aren't in the holes very far. In fact, I don't think one of them is actually in at all, but rather just resting on the edge of the hole. Any tips to get these things more stable?

I took a very small file and just sanded away a bit of the paint on the inside of the hole. After doing this, I was able to slip in the handlebars while maintaining a suitable grip/hold.

I suspect the tolerances from the factory were relatively tight and the paint just took it over the edge making it difficult to install.
 
Here are comparison pics.

The 2nd version as you can see banks to the left compared to the first version which is fine.

There are some noticeable differences between the first gen and 2nd release. I've highlighted them in red.

Parts of the front guns are black and darker. Also parts of the 2nd gen are more black at certain points and the silver is more cleaner and stands out more.

The seat and inside wheel/brake cover is silver on the 2nd release

Sorry I didn't feel like taking the plastic out until catwoman has arrived since that's her bike.
 
I found a piece and uncertain what/where it goes. It's triangular and seems like a brake stopper that you put in front of the wheel. Can someone help?

That was my plan also, put it away until Catwoman arrived, but this thing looks so good all on it's own that i had to display it.

Not even sure if I am going to put Catwoman on it anymore :dunno

Thinking about putting it, the 89 Batmobile and (eventually) the BTTF Delorean in their own separate curio.
 
Debating on whether I want this or not. It's cool and all but it sounds like it's a pain in the ass to get the DX-12 Batman to stay on there and once he's posed to just leave him there :lol. Not sure I'd want to keep him there but I could get it for my Catwoman possibly.

I just got mine and I think it's pretty awesome! No QC defects that I can find and I think it it displays well on it's own. I also have the Tumbler, so my long term goal is to do one of those Ikea Granas coffee table displays that others are working on and have these two (and maybe Bats) on display in there. I'm thinking Selina would look great on this, but will have to wait until her release to see if she can fit on it properly.
