    },
    "active=false,facing=up": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper"
    },
    "active=false,facing=north": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper",
      "x": 90
    },
    "active=false,facing=south": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper",
      "x": 90,
      "y": 180
    },
    "active=false,facing=west": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper",
      "x": 90,
      "y": 90
    },
    "active=false,facing=east": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper",
      "x": 90,
      "y": 270
    },
    "active=true,facing=down": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper_active",
      "x": 180
    },
    "active=true,facing=up": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper_active"
    },
    "active=true,facing=north": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper_active",
      "x": 90
    },
    "active=true,facing=south": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper_active",
      "x": 90,
      "y": 180
    },
    "active=true,facing=west": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper_active",
      "x": 90,
      "y": 90
    },
    "active=true,facing=east": {
      "model": "gtceu:block/metaphysical_grasper_active",
      "x": 90,
      "y": 270
    }
  }
}```

registration code:

event
    .create('gtceu:metaphysical_grasper', 'gtceu:active')
    .displayName('§5Metaphysical Transcendence Grasp')
    .soundType('metal')
    .fullBlock(false)
    .hardness(400)
    .resistance(15000)
    .requiresTool(true)
    .tagBlock('minecraft:mineable/pickaxe')
    .tagBlock('forge:needs_duranium_tool')
    .defaultCutout()
    .property(BlockProperties.FACING)
    .placementState(state => {state.setValue(BlockProperties.FACING, state.clickedFace)})
