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

[Wor-Gar]

Artisan version goes up August 1st at Sideshow.

Wow... lots of lead time with this one. The last one went up the very next day.

I'll probably just get the sculpted version. The rooting in HT looks weird, noticeable pattern placement, looking at the hairline the rooting looks almost too abundant and harshly connected.

Based on this, it looks like HT got the make up right for the Murraaaaay scenes unless the InArt image is mirrored to be at a similar angle. That said, InArt's looks more like make up. I would also say HT got the fullness at the hairline more accurate vs InArt's that has it a bit flatter/pulled back.

The two pack was $1k, the four pack $1.5k. Let’s say we remove the white coat Joker and push down the cost to $1250 (assuming the bathroom and white coat were $250 each) I just know everyone that went for the two pack would drop that extra $250 to own the bathroom Joker.

Ah damn. I wasn't keeping track of the pricing. I can see people upgrading with that difference. It does make the 2 pack absurdly overpriced.

HT assaults InArt...

...what do they have in store for Joost?

Inart photo is mirrored so they're facing the same way.

I do feel this version of Joker is becoming a "i'll wait, someone else will make another". No doubt JND will do a 1/6th, and with Joker 2 around the corner InArt, HT, JND will no doubt be releasing more of him down the line.

Any DC product is like that now, no need to rush into anything anymore. We’re about to have four companies now, three of which are guaranteed to produce the same product. Feels good to delay a purchase until all three companies have spoke and it’s better on the wallet. I couldn’t even imagine wanting to get the InArt four pack, this Artisan, and the JND offering, to then turn around and do the same for Joker 2.

I enjoyed the movie but never really had much desire to own any merchandise from it.

Artisan 89 Joker would have been more interesting.

Agreed! Especially after seeing the customized MarsToys headsculpt

Would’ve been announcement of the year for them. After seeing this, I’m not sure how much hope I’d have in one. The DX08 clothing has better materials and tailoring than this…

Wish we got a laughing sculpt btw

Looks okay, and I am honestly so surprised they have finally decided to do this character/film.
But the best part of this figure is its diorama, the figure itself is a little.... whelming.
Gives me hope that WB/DC will allow figures to be made of the sequel right away.
Got to agree though, an artisan Nicholson Joker would have been a lot more compelling

You don't see a lot of licensed Nicholson merch.

Pity really when the man has so many iconic roles.

His likeness licence is too expensive.

These buttons might be the laziest creation I’ve ever seen. Sculpt looks better from this angle though. The eyes on the InArt red suit throw off the Phoenix likeness.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Nose doesn't look quite long enough to me.

Also, the fold under the nose to the lips needs to be way off-center.

Maaaan, if Howard wanted to kill the Viper in his crib, he would be going ALL OUT on **** like Nicholson. I’d love to see that wispy, chemical green hair sticking out like he just got out of bed. Gimme all of ‘em. Sunglass Nicholson lounging, Partyman Nicholson with an art dio and a melting “Boo” face, First Appearance Jack with his melted gloves and purple neck stain…The whole nine yards.

InArt has some explaining to do.

Good observation, the InArt Arthur Fleck has that detail, but not the red suit, did they think the makeup would camouflage it?

 

[Wor-Gar]

Weird they all missed it. Once you see it, you cannot unsee...
