Hot Toys - Joker - 1/6th scale The Joker Collectible Figure

[GrimmReapah]

Man, I still just hate the expression. He was wild during the Murray show scene - not lobotomized. I passed, but a good, expressive sculpt would’ve made me cave-in and order one.

Look, I get that it looks like Joaquin Phoenix. It’s good sculpt… but it looks like him while they’re applying his makeup backstage before shooting.

The only reason this movie is so highly regarded is due to Joaquin’s performance, and with a $400+ collectible, you want this? No emotion whatsoever? I don’t understand. It looks like Joaquin, but absolutely nothing like Joaquin as The Joker. No teary-eyed scowl before he emerges from the curtains onto the stage. No sculpt with his eyes closed for stair dance poses with a magnetic cigarette for his mouth. No smile. Nothing at all. Is this genuinely ideal? Is this going to capture the character in your displays?

InArt is already giving us a boring stare. Why not something interesting that suits the character?

Wile i agree on most points, i still do see emotion in this last picture.

And playing with the rolling eyes will create different emotions at least. Sure a smiling headsculpt would be freakin awesome but you cant have it all. At the momment i got a blood splatter headsculpt from the momment after he shot Murray. Pretty amazing piece but moving eyes is a game changer for poses. I simply just want it.

Not sure what to do with him yet might sell it or keep both.

This is just the first HT Phoenix Joker. They'll make more, either from the first or the second film. He wears the same costume in both films, so either we get a 2.0 down the line, or one with a different costume...or both.

The stairs diorama is such an obvious choice, so they're probably saving that for another version. Hopefully, the next version has the blue tear drop from the subway sequence or the blood smile.

Going to be a long damn wait for this one.

Looks amazing.. Really don’t understand how some people think InArt is better.

hot toys hair is not good here. one of the worst artisan showing to me. compared to the custom hair I've seen of him and its slim pickings of the actual good ones, this isn't it

likeness is better in certain areas compared to the promo pics

feels a little too flat at the top

Sculpted hair version looks better imo. I hope they improve the artisan version.

HT doesn't always get the hair right on figures, but they did a great job sculpting the hair this time. It looks perfect, imo.

Agreed with how the front looks. But the strands on the side look unnatural. Guess they could have done better. Most likely they don’t want to go all out on the sculpted hair to not devalue the Artisan. It’s the same one Ledger Joker. Their overall hairwork was already better on previous long hair releases.

Sculpted looks really good.

One thing I do like about them having both options sometimes when it comes to these artisan releases is that you can order the “limited” rooted artisan version and pick up the sculpted hair one parted out later; so, you have a backup in case something happens to the wool hair overtime. It’s what I intend to do with the artisans I have on order as they get released

That’s a really good idea. If someone were to part out the artisan head sculpt it would cost a lot more than the sculpted version too.

Wow, those Artisan figures are so realistic, they go bald over time. The JND version will get fat too.

sculpted looks great form certain angles (same with rooted) but it’s also giving off the spaghetti effect in others.

More then Likely HT will do Clown Joker with Bathroom scene accessories which can also end up a Artisan release.

What emotion do you see there?

Like he's holding his rage in and about to explode. The scene before he shot Murray
