Bank Robber Joker/New Sculpt - PHOTO Thread

[beeshaw]

QUESTION! Has anyone attempted to put one of the HOT TOYS Joker heads on a DC Direct Joker body? I only ask because I couldn't afford the first Joker from HT, so I bought the DC Direct because it was okay. But now I purchased the HT Bank version, and was hoping I could just put the extra Joker head on the DC body.....is this just crazy? Or are the necks similar that I simply switch the heads?

I was hoping on doing this too. I'm pretty sure the necks are different styles though so...... not looking good.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but are the hand pegs with this the same size as the HT truetype?

The hand pegs on this figure are the same as the relaunch HT True Types.

the neck posts are different, so a straight switch is not possible.

Now thats a clear shot,well done.

thanks Rock83.

This looks good but I still can't help but wish I hadn't seen Hong's repaint. Maybe its just our real-world lighting but I don't think he looks as good as in the early shots.

I'am I the only one who really dislikes Hong's repaint? I mean...aside from the eyes, I dont like anything about it...

It's not for me either. As an artist, I'm very impressed with his skill and execution and can say I'd enjoy having a piece personally done in his technique, but the actual style of design to his makeup on the Joker he did isn't for me. I know the production figure has the "tears" look and i'm not a fan, but they're subtle enough, and even still, they don't looks as much like tears and more so like smears than his paint, his paint has a thick tip to the smears like water building up at the end of a tear streak. Again, he masterfully executed his design, I just don't care for the particular look.

Sean (MaulFan), did you get the Bank Robber Joker?

Can you give me links to some of your pictures of Batman (and / or Joker)? And, heck even the PotC...?

I am thinking of getting into some Hot Toys stuff, and your pictures just might do the trick.

I hate the tears. Like, pathologically. I can't stand them.

Everything else is ok, but I don't like that particular look. Especially if he's dressed in his full suit, all spiffied up.

 

[CelticPredator]

Which is why BR is getting a repaint.

What can I say....Ledger's Joker has become one of my all-time favorite movie characters. Inspired me enough to dress up for Halloween for the first time in a long time.

And, the Hot Toys Bank Robber Joker looks like a mini-P.F. to me.

It looks effing awesome.

Ditto. I thought it was too much fun to be The Joker.....

So much fun, I never ever want to do it again.

 

[yongkykun]

Why? Coz everybody else dressed up as Joker?

If only my band wouldn't mind. I proposed to them that all of us wear the Joker makeup, so it's kinda like KISS, only with the Joker makeup, ... and no leather pants.

 

[CelticPredator]

No, because I just let it all out. My impression is lost. I have zero desire to ever do it again really.
