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

^ That's a good question.

On my overcoat sadly it's not just the way that the material has been pressed, it is the way that it has been cut, so one side is noticable different than the other, and no fixing that.

The tails jacket is fine on mine though, or close enough anyhow, and that's how I was going to display mine, so I decided to live with the wonky overcoat. Plus I doubt Sideshow would replace it anyhow, and I'm happy with the rest of it overall.

 

[Maglor]

That really does suck. And it should be replaced.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Making me scaried of what I will be eventually getting in the mail in a few weeks. Hot Toys needs to wake up with their quality control already.

 

[Maglor]

Don't like the way the pants pucker in just below the fat-suit. I may have to find a way to pad that area...

 

[Snake Plissken]

Yeah I see what you mean, I can clearly tell where the fat suit ends on the leg. I guess it was too costly to make a brand new true type body and wrapped him in a pillow.

Ask for the wives cotton wool.

 

[Maglor]

I used cotton balls to stuff the shirt above where the fat suit ends. Is that what you mean by "cotton wool"?

 

[vodoun]

I didn't know things were so different over there but yes. Cotton wool is what we call it. Old stuff you use to get it in huge packs. You just broke off as much as you wanted. None of it was made into little balls like most today.

Something's wrong with my eyes

 

[DGTWoodward]

Funny, and ever so slightly scary

 

[DGTWoodward]

Dupe'd post, sorry.

That's why I'm really hoping mine is fine because I'll more than likely keep it. Sideshow won't replace, which is utter bull ____, and I don't want a refund so yeah.....

 

[Snake Plissken]

Why wouldn't they replace it? I got mine PO'ed through BBTS. Their return policy is superb.

 

[TheFiend]

^ Yeah it has been up till now. Well, at least concerning this figure. Many other boardies tried to get replacement for different things including the coat and they were told that all the figures have slight differences and that's just the way it is...or something like that.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Those kitty cotton balls are creepy as hell.

Everytime I see your pics man that hat grows on me a little more. Looks superb. My Joker can't come soon enough!​

Because with anything in life, so many people abuse good things. Those that had genuine faults now suffer because the ones that went way over the top with things causing a shop not to see it, ends all replacements.

I can imagine the bombardment of emails Sideshow gets for such silly minor things. But the people that really do have serious problems suffer because of them. Now everyone fits in this box.

Yes. It's really not that bad. The correct position the hat sits in makes all the difference. If anything the head area is too big on mine. If you nudge the figure the hat falls down on the head. I had to wedge a thin piece of foam so it would stay put.

A big chunk like that would actually work better than cotton balls. You could cut a strip to go around his leg and just tape it once to hold it together...

Yeah, unless you're looking at a picture of the real hat you don't think to yourself, 'man that brim is way to small'. You just appreciate the beauty of the over-all piece.

No cutting required. It's so soft you just pull it apart but because of it's fluffiness you wouldn't have coarse edges or bumps like cotton balls. Like soft plush dog toys. It's all perfectly filled.
