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

[Wor-Gar]

HT did confirm the the entire figure is magnetized. But that the magnetisim will fade in time. Also the vibrant color of the clothing will only last 9 months. The plastic is scheduled to melt in 2 years.

But we'll have the DX 2.0 well before any of that happens, no worries.

No political BS in the Joker dolly thread please.

Perhaps if some people read about things on the economy and educated themselves that talk wouldn't have existed in this thread. Then you wouldn't have had some of the hissy fits.

Seems funny to me that people are concerned about price... I'm much more concerned that they'll make a better version 9 months from now and make my beloved figure obsolete.

Remakes are worse than gouging.

And what a great world we would live in. "Wait it costs them 100 dollars to make it? Then I should only have to pay $50 and we both make money!!"

It's truly scary the logic that is shown in some of these posts...and it makes me feel well older than my 38 years. I feel like my dad preaching to a 7-year old version of me.

That was my only concern today. Thinking the same thing .......... its also the reason I may only get one of each.

 

[Spanbauer]

That's funny, but not true. The HT Aliens marines sure don't look like this new Joker.

No, but it does look like the $179 DX01 Joker.

 

[SnakeDoctor]

$249 is pretty high, even for this. I preordered, but I'll consider canceling before the release comes around -- especially if both ship at the same time.

That was pretty harsh.
P.S. Awesome avatar, the unfinished pyramid with the all-seeing eye on top is very illuminating.

It's from Kubrick's 2001, you nutjob.

Go grow some skin. The adults are talking . . . .

Quick question, gents.

I usually only collect PFs and 1:1, so I don't know anything about Hot Toys. Is it like the non-EX Sideshow pieces, where they are usually available cheaper from other vendors?

Unfinished pyramid... That has to be the quote of the week. "Dave..what you doing dave..you're touching my unfinished pyramid dave.."

 

[SnakeDoctor]

BigBadToyStore has Joker for $249 and Batman for $225. I almost always order from them. No risk preordering ... cancel at anytime before it ships.

Yes. But these, not so much cheaper, particularly give Sideshow's free shipping and the reward points.

Yes and no...each vendor has their own benefits...go back about 5/6 pages and someone laid out the prices of each place with the benfits. I always go SSC....free shipping on this plus bonus points=win.

 

[krec9]

whats the cheapest place to pre order both?

 

[Mighty Galactus]

Thanks all, that was quick!

 

[Chubs&Doggers]

No, but it does look like the $179 DX01 Joker.

Which would cost what .. $240 if released today? Those days are long gone.

 

[small_studios]

Ordered x3

Why you little...

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Stop spending money and anything and everything and then spend like it's the end of the world when something comes out that is a must have for you, no matter the damn cost!

You will know when you want something, your heart will beat the ____ out of your brain and it makes you buy it!

That's 89 Batman and Joker for me, that's 89 Batmobile for me.

That's not TDK OC Batman for me so you know what....I cancelled him so that I could afford 2 Keaton's.

Why, because my heart told me, that's why!

Thanks jye4ever, this comment made me really take stock of my HT on order, there are ones that i really like, but don't love, i am of the kind to order 70% of Hot Toys announced becaise they are great looking. But with prices now, i think now is the time that i make a distiction when ordering Hot Toys and start only ordering ones that really leap out at me.

I choose to believe what i was programned to believe, the economy is fine, global warming is a myth, we do have enough prisons, Tween is a fad that will die soon & Powergirl is respected for her character not her chest
