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

[Mister D]

JOKER IS COMING! JOKER IS COMING!

I just got my confirmation from BBTS!

 

[Snake Plissken]

Now I'm wondering should I gamble it and just let them continue the order...

 

[Maglor]

Umm..No, Mags I love your shots and photography skills and superb lighting techniques...but that's just not Jack, compared to the HT's sculpt, sorry

guyver1 is right, Mag. It doesn't look like jack joker at all.

Now you can sell it to me.

I got my shipping info from Alter Ego. It should be here on Thursday.

Alright, good for you man! Me, I don't hear anything. No email, no newsletter, no shipping info. My status on the two pack hasn't been updated either and I've had Batman for a month. I didn't even know Batman had shipped until I called and they told he had 2 days prior. I dunno....they did get back to me on the newsletter though. They entered it manually and I should receive them now.

It's funny you should say that. My friend bought the Batman/Joker pack too and he didn't get a shipping confirmation or tracking info on his order either. He knew about it because of the charge to his card and it arrived a few days later.

Looking at that gif compared to your pic, the likeness is really coming through for me. Can I get one of those somewhere??

 

[TheFiend]

Checked bank account. No money taken.

 

[klocket]

Just got mine today...

He is pretty fantastic...

[Snake Plissken]

Emailed BBTS CS again. I guess I will take it... hopefully it's not bad... maybe if it is and the figure is mint, I'll have to shop around for a new box.

 

[guyver1]

Sorry Mags still not seeing it, hair aside the facial structure looks manikin looking and not realistic like this

 

[Spanbauer]

I don't think those photos don't help your case, Maglor. I know you really want it to be better better than Hot Toys headsculpt, because you probably paid more for that custom than the entire Hot Toys figure combined, but that head looks nothing like Jack and everything like you pulled it off a $20 Toy Biz figure at K-Mart.

And I'm talking about the likeness, not the flat paint and complete lack of texture.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Only issue is the paint. The likeness is more spot on than HT.

 

[Maglor]

As I've said several times, I love both heads. I really do. And I will likely choose the HT head for the long-term display.

The HT head is more detailed yes, but how anyone can see Jack in motion in that gif and not see that the custom looks more like him is beyond my comprehension. The HT head looks like a caricature by comparison.

I wasn't gonna comment, but the ____ing K-Mark comment is too much for me to bear.

Maybe...You know, why don't you paint that custom and make it the flesh Joker style! you still have the HT's hs for your collection mags, I'm not joking, I think that custom will look great in the flesh style joker!

"caricature" is quite right. Nicholson is there, just it's a little exaggerated. The one you got there is more true. I immediately noticed it was more accurate when you originally posted it.

Yeah I think HT's is a great sculpt and captures the Joker amazingly well.

I definitely think Adam's has more Jack Nicholson in it

Here is Seb's melty version:

Definitely a lot of Nicholson in that one. Thats like HT's paint with Mag's likeness. Definitely the best custom of 89 Joker.

For the record, I never liked teh HT sculpt either.
