Hot Toy DX08 - BATMAN - The Joker (Jack Nicholson) - Specs & Pics

[Wor-Gar]

Is the bow on the bowtie adjustable?

Can you pull the hankerchief out further from the pocket?

Can you extend the brim of the hat? I joke here.

I'm sorry guys. I will be, in between passing out, littering this thread with pics for a while.

Please ask any questions you have about it. There are plenty of positives and a few nits too.

What kind of faults have you found? I got mine in today and I was floored - haven't been so taken back by a figure since I saw Imaresq1's joker head in person some months back

 

[a-dev]

You will.

Props for totally out of the blue T2 quote.

Is this available in the US already?

You must ask three times for a response.

I'm excited as well Coco, hopefully my Joker will be here by weds this coming week, are you switching the jackets back and forth, or are you laying the overcoat over his coat and tails, how thick or bulky does it look with both coats on.

I can't wait to start some photos with him and my BD batman sculpt.

How do the parts compare to the old custom ones?

No. Th knot seems to be fixed in place somehow. Kinda feels like a fabric stiffener or glue or something. This happens to be nit #1 of mine. The knot looks ok but not as good as it could.

No. The kerchief is sewn in place. Don't know how far down in the pocket it goes if you were to cut the thread though.

Yes...sort of. I actually gently futzed mine so that it didn't bend down quite as far. It's definitely minor but some have noticed the difference in my pics so far.

The bow tie knot as I just mentioned. Kinda looks all wadded up instead of tied on mine.
And the overcoat is much too small. It should fit easily over his tail coat and button in front but it doesn't. Even after you take the tail coat off to get the trencher to fit it just doesn't add the bulk to him like it did in the movie. I wish they would have made it a smidge bigger.

The pose choices for this guy are near endless. I'm so glad I have a second on order with AE.

Coco,

1. Does it?
2. Was it difficult?
3. How?

 

[DiFabio]

How does that flower work? A pin, velcro?

The hand choices kill alll customs for sure. The polka-dot tie sheen, hang and pattern are amazing and hasn't been touched even by beto's. The shirt is perfect and the tail coat is cut very well and I really like the material. I like beto's orchid better than HT's but I like how HT's attaches more. I also like beto's Joker pants more than HT's, pattern, color and material.

The remote and walkie are really cool and nicely detailed as well.

...are you switching the jackets back and forth, or are you laying the overcoat over his coat and tails, how thick or bulky does it look with both coats on.

Unfortunitely the trencher wasn't made big enough to fit over the tail coat. It has to be removed first then the trencher can go on and it's still snug. Too snug. It actually should bulk him up a bit more than it does.

There's a small metal hook on the orchid that hangs from thread loop on the lapel.

How stable are the shoes can you leave him posed with a tippy toe stance without the stand.

This is the one I must know, does the long barrel gun retract in any way like he pushed it back in place at the cathedral.

I notice that the pants seem to sag is that because it's touching the body suit, is it better to pull them up, or move them down more to get rid of the sag

 

[Maglor]

I hate how preemptively defensive one has to be around here when voicing a criticism because some people can't seem to tolerate any crticism whatsoever towards a HT product.

A-dev

There's the picture I've been waiting to see!

I wouldn't leave him in that kind of pose without the stand.

The long gun doesn't retract(would've been cool) but the BANG flag does pull out of the other gun.

Not too sure about the pants but I always thought Jack had them pulled slightly higher than normal in the film and the pant legs hang in such a way that they didn't bunch at the ankles.

Gotta post a quickie pic of him with Bats.

You know... from a distance that hat doesn't look too bad.

Nice shot Coco!

How is the arm movement through either coat, is it easy, I hated the DX01 when you moved the arms the Coat would raise to much, making him look like the coat doesn't fit right.

In hand, does the neck seem to long to you, or is it just the way you have to futz with the collar.

Also in your honest opinion, does he look better w or w/o the hat.

 

[Maglor]

You are pretty much the only one in this thread that thinks it looks nothing like Jack. By normal standards, that makes you the odd man out. And although it may make you unique, IT ALSO MAKES YOU INSANE AND WRONG!

"Insane and wrong"? A bit dramatic isn't it? I would go out on a limb and say that anyone who says it looks 'nothing like Jack' is exaggerating for effect. That said I think the Bank Robber Joker looks more like Heath Ledger than this looks like Jack Nicholson. This very much looks like the '89 Joker though. No way anyone would have to guess what character it represented.

Nice job raising those detolfs!

Heavenly lord. Best in-hand pics yet.

Love the "hat's-off" pose!


I don't mind the hat (though I would be curious to see a custom made), and I know I'm gonna love this figure.

 

[Maglor]

Coco, are there any magnets involved with this figure?

Some of OMG's pics give the impression that the cane and even the money is somehow held in place with magnets.
