Deliberate mistake: The device that rises out of the Jolly Jack factory and summons the laser beam shatters the decorative head, appearing to do so for the first time. However, we have already seen the destructive beam in action, meaning that device must already have emerged. This was acknowledged on the commentary by the filmmakers who wanted to show the visual metaphor of the Joker driving the young Tim Drake insane.
