It is somewhat likely that the second is a copycat and the creators of the first one have nothing to do with it.

I'm guessing viral marketing for a movie of some sort.

It was kind of disappointing to read the Redditt thread where some people described it as hollow cardboard with a metallic paint.

My theory has been that it is Nathan Fielder's work since I first saw it. Big budget, very random, no explanation. It's like a pig rescuing a goat.

Looks like a cheap Easter European knockoff. Check out that shoddy craftsmanship.

Was the first one solid metal or hollow like these other two?

The first one was hollow, it was three aluminum panels riveted together with a top piece added

It'll be interesting to see if whoever is doing this reveals themselves. The Utah government messaging seemed to imply they would probably fine/charge whoever did it since it was on public land without authorization.

I would assume the first one was a legit artwork as it's been there for a number of years without any announcements and that the recent ones are just copycats.
