Bank Robber Joker/New Sculpt - PHOTO Thread

[cr0w]

Me too. I'm in the minority, but I think it gives the sculpt much more personality.

Plus it reminds me of when he looks at the old guy right before he says, "You remind me of my father."

 

[CelticPredator]

Yep. I didnt like it at first, but I grew on me.

I need to gets my paint ready for Dec 25th!

Its not that most don't like the way there painted , its just in terms of taking photos of the figure and more importantly posing it the way they are painted it limits alot of things that " could be " cool.
We will see anyway , I know someone will have the eyes repainted.
I am posing him like in the photos below and with the way money is now I have decided I will be leaving the sculpts paint apps.
I can see the problems people are having though.

Oh yeah, it definitely limits your options if you want to take a whole bunch of pictures in varying poses of it. I tend to find a pose I love and leave the figure in it, though, so the eyes are perfect for me.

Yeah, I understand why people prefer the straight on eyes, but as I said in the other Bank Robber thread, I think although you won't get as many poses out of the posed-eyes version, the poses will be that more interesting to me. So I'm glad they chose this paintjob.

BTW, the new pics from Toy-World rock.

 

[CelticPredator]

They shoulda did the Party Crash paint insted.

It might sound weird, but once I get the figure in-hand it's going to be a little strange seeing that the head is 1/6 scale. What I mean is that all the pictures and stuff have been so larger than life, and the sculpt is so ^^^^ing great, that it being so small is going to blow my mind. That make any sense?

 

[agonistes86]

Actually I've had the same thought. I can't really imagine at the moment how I'm going to be holding him in my hands, and he'll look just like in all the pics. It just seems sort of surreal.

 

[darthviper107]

It is interesting about that. I think that's what makes the figures look so much better when you have them in-hand. Things just look so much cooler when they're small.

I own almost 100 figs and I am still amazed everytime I open one up for the first time.

ps pics of BR Joker's socks please.

 

[CelticPredator]

They're black...im sure. Black in the film, with little designs...

 

[Devil_666]

Jack Ups already said there's no socks.

lolz there's no socks on mine : (
just the shoes which are more like boots than anything.

That sucks. One of the things I really liked about v.1 were his socks.

 

[blakus939]

Like those new toyworld pics, looks tops on the V1 as you would expect

 

[CelticPredator]

That sucks. One of the things I really liked about v.1 were his socks.

They would've been black anyway. He didnt have any of his cloths until after he got the money.

 

[pixletwin]

I am pretty sure I have seen a screen grab where he was wearing grey and black diamond socks.

 

[CelticPredator]

Unintresting socks....

 

[pixletwin]

I like details.

 

[CelticPredator]

I hate socks...

 

[Sachiel]

Yup. This is going to be a long wait.
