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

[Darkavatar]

Do you think anyone will scan this sculpt and print it in 1/6?

I want a 1/4 one to, the HT Joker sculpt just doesn't cut it.

Because it's the most accurate ledger sculpt we would have in 1/6 and the entire energy/vibe of a joker sculpt can be greatly varied depending on the makeup

I wouldn't say greatly, the expression would still look rather neutral.

So are there some people with some pictures already?

It looks ok but it should be better than Ok given the price of this!

It seems there are a lot of repaints of this sculpt or people in the process of getting their sculpt repainted going by the facebook groups, so obviously a lot of owners are unhappy with the paint job on this.

I wonder when we will see the first complete custom head.

Do you mean a custom head made by another artist or the head of this begin customized? If it's the latter then that would defeat the purpose on buying that statue because the sculpt is the main reason people want this statue.

FYI someone has already customized this head on this, they added hair as well as a repainted it, they posted it on facebook. TBH I didn't think the repaint and real hair looked that good. Prefer the repaint that was posted a few pages back.

Pics from the P1 group @ FB. I think whoever buys this is getting a fabulous statue, congrats....looks great. He does have some big-assed feet though...LOL.

 

[HarleyQuinn2014]

You know what they say about big feet.

Yes, another complete head, that is the only thing wrong with this.

While this is not perfect by any means, seeing what HT had to offer, I still think this is the best Heath (non custom) collectible that will be on the market..... maybe forever. That last pic really shows how great the likeness is.

Yes, another complete head,

Like I said before that would totally defeat the purpose, the main reason people want this statue is because of the head sculpt, despite the boring expression it has, it still the best likeness to Heath that has been mass produced. There is really no point on buying a custom head because no one can sculpt Ledger as good as Adam, unless people just want a sculpt that captures the essence of the Joker but not the likeness. Then they should just forgot about this statue and buy either Hot Toys or Sideshows 1/4 scale Jokers.

that is the only thing wrong with this.

No it's not the only thing wrong with this, the paint job isn't the best as far as detail goes for the make up and the pose is very boring to. Even though the tailoring is amazing, I highly doubt many people would even consider buying this given the boring pose, if the head was not sculpted by Adam.

Agree with you on both points. Hot Toys 1/4 Joker just looks nothing like Ledger with the make up and that's the major problem with it, the likeness just isn't good enough to shrine through the make up. The sculpt on this could be painted with poker dots all over it and it would still look like Ledger.

That last pic really shows how great the likeness is.

Agreed, make up still doesn't look detailed enough though, still agree with what others have said in that it has a stencil look to it.

If I ever get this, I may commission someone to recast the head (just for me) and change the expression and add a smile to it, but I imagine somebody else will do this before I ever get it. That may be what Stingray was referring too as opposed to a full new sculpt from the ground up.
