1/6 INART (Queen Studio) - The Dark Knight - Joker Collectible Figure

[nm.ct]

Yeah this and the picture above it really shows why we should always reserve full judgement until the thing is in hand. It's freaking beautiful from here.

 

[Hando]

Really hope the prison one is properly futzed on display and will dispell my doubts

 

[Wor-Gar]

Sadly, Aragorn did not fair so well under these same circumstances. Maybe it is Aragon.

 

[Kit Chen]

Yeah pretty much looks exactly like their production video version, as expected. Now let's go back to complaining about the same thing for 20 more pages.

Chop chop

you are always faster than me on CF

Its him after he tried eowyns stew

 

[Wor-Gar]

Re Aragorn, I've never seen a figure go from bad, to great, to worse in a matter of hours like that one has. I expect it will look better in the next set of photos. We thought Joker looked uneven?


Anyway, so happy to see that picture above of Joker. Now, as Hando says, lets dare to see Interrogation Joker...

Anyone else wonder why when he has non-jointed wrists that they keep NOT rolling his sleeves up when jacketless?

More brown in the hair I like.

Need some sharper pictures to really see the detail in the face though.

Agreed. This was just a quick screen grab with my phone from the end of Kit’s video.

Hologram_AI can probably get a sharper quality grab than me

This is a thing of beauty. Sheesh.

Hot Toys doesn’t stand a chance with a 3.0 if that’s truly what we’ll be receiving.

Gave up on that idea when they went backwards in likeness with a bigger canvas on the 1/4 version.

 

[Captain Clown]

The 1/4th scale figure is so hideously vacant and devoid of any passion or effort whatsoever.

I remember being excited for the grenade rig, followed by the haunting disappointment of realizing he looked like complete crap actually posed using it since he can’t look to the side. It’s like he gambled on a fart and can’t tell if he won. It’s such a boring expression that can’t be used for any interesting pose whatsoever.

The figure doesn’t look anything like Ledger either - it looks like a bootleg head that’s been recast so many times it’s been softened and stretched beyond recognition - and the hair sculpt sucks. They gave him mob meeting makeup but then “tried” to give him hair based on the interrogation scene in an attempt to provide two display options, but thus failing at both. What was the point? Why not include a second head that was actually worthwhile? But no, they included that stupid half-paint sculpt with a huge blotch of paint missing to give the illusion that it somehow looks like Heath.

And then they had the gall to advertise it as “commemorating 10 years of JC Hong and Yulli collaborating on Ledger Joker figures” and not, say, The Dark Knight’s ****ing 10 year anniversary which was the same year.

But hey, I guess they finally got the blazer color right, and he includes the metal pipe this time! But the pipe has weird plastic “vent” holes that you typically see on cheap bendy figures.

Such a joke of a release all around. Truly the pinnacle of Hot Toys at their worst - when they’re full of themselves and without competition.

Oh, and the base sucked too.

Thank goodness for InArt.

I don't have a picture of the normal head prototype paint. But here's the half one. It still look off. And wasn't DX11 also sculpted by Yulli? How did that sculpt look so much better?

What the hell is that? Who green lit that? That head sculpt looks nothing like Heath Ledger lol

As if HT care. People still lapped it up.

 

[Zeke]

Look at the bottom of the vest and the v shape. The body looks totally different.

The vest already needs replacing and for the price it should be correct to start with. Until I see in hand collectors pics I'm not paying for a bait and switch.

I like the sculpts but when a $120 outfit set already looks better than a $1090 figure then that's worrying.

Agreed. In addition, the shirt also doesn’t look as formfitting as in the promo. A bit disappointing.

 

[Gowithasmile!]

That literally looks like if someone took the DX01 and DX11 sculpt as their only reference of Heath Ledger to make THIS monstrosity. Even the promo pictures don't look good, and the promo pictures make most things look good.
