1/2 Prime 1 Studio - The Dark Knight - Joker (Adam Gu + Kato)

[azurepred]

eh, face needs a repaint imo . The smear marks defn look like stencils; way too symmetrical. There is 0 smearing of the black paint, which looks kind of odd. Also, wasn't Heath fairly tall? Statue looks tiny next to all the others, as if he was a foot shorter.

He does look ridiculously tiny. He was 6'1, like Henry Cavill. So yeah, they screwed up there.

 

[supermasterhulk]

Looks great. Can't wait to receive it.

Hmm.. Given that they're supposed to also make a Bale Batman to go with this to be its companion piece, I would assume that the Bale Bat will be of similar height to Joker, but that would unfortunately mean that he may be much shorter than the BvS 1/2 scale pieces.

This is like the Sideshows PFs where they're maybe the smallest 1/4 pieces in my collection.

Well more reason to switch to the 1/3 pieces and get the 1/3 Bats with Selena Kyle.

The size actually concerns me. I'm surprised how much smaller he looks. They have to match Ledgers scale for Bale Batman.

I think people who ***** are those who want him but can not afford him. I do not see any difference from the Prototype pictures were up a while and I knew for some time now he was an inch or two smaller but pple never bitched then, but for some reason are starting to now. Its a joke!

Which? Your logic?

If you're happy with the figure and you think it's worth the cash you paid for, more power to you. I for one won't think that you're trying to mask regret by overjustification, because that's not how my logic works.

Now let those who have criticisms talk. This is a forum, not an "ALL PRAISE PRIME1'S HEATH LEDGER JOKER THREAD".

Here we go with the same old song. Never before had we seen such a clear shot of Ledger standing by the other 1:2 pieces. As simple as that.

well, I've been criticizing it from the beginning. I wish I liked it and tried to, but at 2k, not worth it from what I see. I know there will be some custom goodies that will make it better, so that may persuade me, but in the mean time I'm still hoping for a 1/3 Joker.

The statue never changed looks exactly like the prototype. So, why are pple bitching now? I just think think some people on here just ***** to *****. It happens on every thread. Now if you guys do not like it don't buy it and be respectful to those who do buy it. That shouldn't be to much to ask. I understand this is a forum and pple have there opinions I respect everyone's opinion but sometimes the bitching gets to be to much. Plus no one in the states has scene it in person. Why not at least wait till you have it in person. Oh but wait, those who complain won't have it so I guess the ones who bought it will know. What regret and over justification? Ya that makes sense I never said anything to justify anything or was trying to justify a point. Anyways, I am getting this statue I never care what pple think because at the end of the day I am the one who owns it. What logic? Dude I do not understand your comment, I never had a point I was trying to make so chill buddy!

Ya if you followed the thread earlier we did there were many pictures up, so your quite wrong. Go back and see. I been following this thread since this was preordered.

Don't people like you also hate it when others throw shade on the prototype and say, "it's just the proto, wait til the photos of the final product come out!". And maybe they did this time, they waited for the photos, now they're saying what they have in mind. Still got a problem with that?

And so what if it's too much? Why be affected if you do love what you see and what you're paying for?

BE RESPECTFUL TO THOSE WHO BUY IT? I have not seen anyone go down the road some people tend to do, like say things such as "the paint is crap. Joker is Undersized. People who spent 2k for this IS STUPID.". NONE. Every comment and criticism I see are directed to the figure, not the people who bought the figure. That's respect. DISRESPECT is saying people who keep bitchin are those who just can't afford it.

And as for the regret and overjustification part, you clearly didn't get my drift and you yourself have admitted that, so I'll leave it at that.

I figured you would have to state your point. Knowing that we have different opinions I knew you would be acting this way. Whatever, man go about your business. Funny thing is the people that are bitching do not have the piece so how is any of this logic or justified? I'm over this and wasting time, it's obvious that we do not see eye to eye and that is fine but leave it at that. Its fine to have a conversation, Your comment makes a whole lot of sense by the way "People who spent 2k for this IS STUPID." You said it was not directed at anyone oh really?? Calling someone a name is not disrespectful?? So, everyone who buys this is basically stupid. Its clear we have to different opinions on what respectful and disrespectful are. I guess me being in the military helped me better understand respect and pple these days. Whatever, I wasted to much time on this. Peace!!

Holy crap. I can't believe this! You really don't get my point!

I AM NOT CALLING ANYONE STUPID. I AM TELLING YOU SOMETHING ABOUT RESPECT. I was telling you that nobody who criticized disrespected anyone who bought this figure BY SAYING SOMETHING LIKE "STUPID". I was giving an EXAMPLE, not DESCRIBING ANYONE!

Whatever, man. Thanks for your service, but whatever.

Listen, were both fans of statues, lets move on whats with the caps lol chill dawg, just a conversation. Take it easy lol!

eh, face needs a repaint imo .

Agreed, the make up needs to have more of messy look to it.

The smear marks defn look like stencils; way too symmetrical. There is 0 smearing of the black paint, which looks kind of odd.

The smear marks look like decals, (not saying they are) I am guessing every statue will have the same exact make up look to it with the same shape and same color stripes coming out around his eye area in order to maintain consistency for each piece. And why are are smear marks on his forehead grey and not flesh colored like they were on the proto?

The statue never changed looks exactly like the prototype.

Well the paint job on the head sculpt was a lot better, that's what drew me into this piece how dam good the paint job looked. The paint job on this is quite bad considering the price this statue cost.

The paint job on the proto had smear flesh tone marks on the forehead as well as grey tones. The make up around the eye area gradually got lighter as it faded out but on the product its just black around the eyes with grey stripes coming out.

So, why are pple bitching now? I just think think some people on here just ***** to *****. It happens on every thread. Now if you guys do not like it don't buy it and be respectful to those who do buy it. That shouldn't be to much to ask.

I was still tempted to buy this but now I am just hoping they do a 1/3 scale one because the paint job on the head sculpt is a deal breaker.

Here is a link to the the page with pictures of the proto and it clearly shows how much better the paint job was, and coincidentally also mentions how short the Joker is.

So the comments people making now are warranted and some issues like the height are not new,unlike Bats and Supes we are not getting the same piece that was advertised. I think this is a first for Prime.

Not just height wise but he looks generally completely out of scale. Worrying.

From all I can see, all we have here are people being respectful. With honest critiques and personal opinions. In fact, the first person I have seen being disrespectful to other members here is you, in the very post deriding others for being disrespectful. How ironic.

I also cannot quite believe people are still using the 'if you don't like it don't buy it' response. This is still a discussion forum last I checked.

But these are in hand pictures

Those latest pictures show the paintwork around the eyes no better than Hot Toys first ledger joker. Definitely airbrushed stencils. With a repaint this could be amazing.
