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

[lyssette]

Speaking of the purple overcoat, what kind of material is it made out of? I was thinking of getting it and dying it darker. I know this is difficult for polyester material...

 

[RIDDICK]

brilliant!

I agree. I also bought mine from cornerstore. No problems.

You might be disappointed still when you get a replacement coat. It doesn't close. even with force and the proper clasps. The outer coat is pretty disappointing

It closes. It takes some serious force but it does close.

I finally got this figure up yesterday. I really do love this figure. And I think if you get this one, you need to get the Keaton Batman. They just go so well together.

Although I don't wholly agree with you I kind of feel the same way with a few of these figure coming out lately with these bloated prices. I mean, where does it end?? Loki is $220. Think about that for a minute. That's a lot of ____ing dough and your not even getting a lot with him and he's not even a DX. I don't care how great the outfit and sculpt is. Get real HT. I can only imagine what the Joker 2.0 is going to be. If that thing ( which I don't think it will) has 2 outfits your looking at close to $300. At the very least $240 + for another Joker. And I love the character but I just can't bring myself to lay down that kind of money for another Joker. Inflation is one thing but I can't help but think they are jacking the prices because they can. Can't blame them I suppose. Sorry, rant over. Back to Joker. Which happens to be my favorite figure right now.

Rant away cuz I agree 100%. There is no inflation, just a bunch of companies laughing at us numbnuts forking out the dough. At the end of the day nobody is forcing us to buy these things either, we choose to so we only have ourselves to blame. My issue though, was for the first time not seeing the value in my purchase. That ain't good.

Purely on speculation, price hikes could be due to the cost of the licenses.

Awesome pics, Rackemup!

 

[Rackemup]

Thanks Bio! Im still cracking up at your "Destined to do this forever..." pics. So much win!!

Buy what you need not what you want and it may help make those decisions easier. I passed on this figure, waiting to see what the 2.0 might be, but make no mistake, the Dealers are jacking the prices up because WE are buying them at these price points.

I remember not that long ago buying Aliens Marines figures, with all the accessories that came with them, for around $78 each back in 07 or so. Today, they would be well over 180-200 each. That is an insane hike.

But I agree, it has already gotten to the point of whether it's worth it to build a collection at these prices. But for this figure, a well made custom always cost in the 350 range if you could snag one --

 

[Voorhees27]

Dude I have been selective, believe me! I mean who wouldn't want these two pieces? They're (internet nerd word coming) bloody epic. I dunno why but I just can't see where the $517 went.

A little while back I bought the EB T-800 for about $460 shipped. I've yet to question its value or price tag. I simply didn't care. It's literally a museum piece. Real leather and real bullets for crying out loud.

For me it's never been about the money, ever, this is just a question of value.

Remember Godfather? Remember what you got and what you paid?

 

[Tick-Tock]

Not sure how much this has to do with prices going up, but China has allowed their currency to appreciate in the past few months. I doubt that would make a $175 figure go up to $250, though.
