They’re from James Park’s YouTube page. I couldn’t save them for the full hi-res pics so just did screen shots.
Here’s a link to the post:

Cheers for that.
I was ready to be just content with the release of it coming out just alright. But that first picture is ******* incredible. Even more excited to get this in now.
Although I'd still like the inner-most part of his eyes to be more black, the red of his scars are looking more pronounced here and the overall black eye makeup is looking better.
The neatness and how crisp the shirt and tie are is sublime for 1/6.

Thanks for the link and sharing the photos in the first place. I wouldn't have seen them otherwise.
I was able to download the images from the post.

Didn't they say there was a video coming over the weekend.
Was waiting for it and it didn't come.
Boo.

Jesus Christ that tailoring really stands out, they got it perfectly form-fitting with great colours. The eye magnets look quite seemless also, although they didn't showcase it the best here, but looks like it works well enough. The rooted hair looks incredibly well done outside of small run artist made batches.
Overall this is looking phenomenal. Hope they release an English official unboxing like they have done in the past.

I agree with you.
I am considering retiring from collecting anyway (lately it's nothing new but reissues and also space problems!) so I don't think I will purchase any other 1/6 from JND. It's just that this one is a special one, for me, as this is their first, with the new technology and all, and it being Ledger Joker. So I want to have it, and like you said, have to experience it.
And yes, from the videos, I like what I see.
I did not order direct, no.. I ordered from my local supplier. I don't know when he will get his batch, but I am not in a rush either.

Sculpt still looking like a cosplayer, yes the default one. Bad straight green colored hair, proto color was way better and had variation.
The tie pattern and vest color are what I like best about this. I hate HT's tie.
But those overcoat lapels... man, I don't know why they made them so high. Even HT has better positioned lapels.

No suspenders?

No suspenders is a clear indicator that these guys are not remotely familiar with the 1/6 community/market.
I'm still not blown away.
The tailoring is decent but those coat lapels are random as hell and overall this just doesn't wow me. For this price, I should be wowed.
Also, what does Joker have at the end of his pocket chain? I can't imagine him carrying cards and petty cash around in a wallet. Maybe it's keys to the Joker mobile or a nice river-view Gotham apartment.

No shade at the manufacturers, but no one has been able to reproduce his overcoat at 1/6 without it turning out like a bathrobe. Despite being well pressed, or having squared shoulders, or perfect lapels, it's still looks puffy and thick everywhere, compared to the loose hanging drape it has in real life. I think it's just a reality of packing on this many layers of fabric at 1/6 scale. But it always ruins the effect for me.

I wonder what it could look like if some custom tailor did a facade of the undercoat/blazer that had no sleeves and no back and was stitched to the inside of the purple coat?

Oh boy... if you're just used to unpacking your figures and plonking them in a detour, this is going to be a nightmare!
I dressed and undressed enough WWII figures with three or four layers of clothing plus gear to know how utterly nerve-wracking this can be. Having said that, the figure looks pretty great!

That's what I thought when I first saw images of the silicone head sculpts. They are terribly designed and will be a nightmare to switch out because you have to undo the shirt, tie and vest every time.Oh boy... if you're just used to unpacking your figures and plonking them in a detour, this is going to be a nightmare!

I tend to re-dress most figures whose outfits aren't stitched or glued shut since the factory assembly usually leaves something to be desired and it allows me to work out any unfavorable creases, remove excess stitching, and get really familiar with how the piece is put together. Taking a look a the underlying body and playing with the joints before redressing can also work wonders- but my first thought was how that is not going to appeal to a lot of people.
It's like 20-30 minutes work before you can even start futzing and posing.
This whole time I thought I'd ordered with GunDamit where there's still the potential of getting back the NRD if I cancel- even if only as store credit- but turns out I PO'd with Kit... where NRD means NRD!
