It's for a 17-year-old fantasy football league that we started together as soldiers in Iraq. Twice in the past five years, our current resin trophy (the top one, the Tenequer Memorial Trophy) was damaged during shipping. Now, we're ponying up for a legit Lombardi Trophy replica (but with our logo and name on it) affixed to a solid wood base with engraving plates for 32 different seasons (so we still have 14 years before we need to think about expansion). The common trophies available online are painted resin; our new trophy will be hand-crafted metal. The common trophy bases included with the painted resin trophies are MDF and the paint (or glaze or laminate, whatever it is) is constantly chipping and making it look cheap and beat up. Our new base will be solid wood that is stained rather than painted. Between the base and the topper, we're looking at $700+, so we want to protect it. This league is how we all keep in touch, so we are confident it will last for years to come and we want our trophies to as well.
