Well I was considering getting this, but for $270 before shipping? Yeah, no. Much rather pay $100 more for a much more rare and cooler figure from Iminime.
 
Here's a good comparison for perspective


DX 12 Batman - $260

Baaaad tings.
 
Someone better PM him and let him know before this sells out!! :lol

But this is such an easy pass for me. I may try to grab the duffel bag off ebay, but $270 plus shipping is insane. I appreciate HT helping me save some money for once.

I was thinking that as well, but I'm worried that it's gonna be priced very high. I'm debating whether it's worth it to purchase and part out the stuff I don't need.
 
I remember I bought the Terminator Salvation John Connor from a local shop for $140 when it came out and an Iron Man Mark III off of eBay around the same time for $175 and thinking this would likely be a hobby I couldn't maintain financially. Prices have continued to rise since then but they've stayed somewhat reasonable for what they have given you in the past. The Luke Skywalker set was, what, $300 when it came out and it has two complete figures. DXs have come in around the mid-$200' but they generally make it worthwhile with accessories and light-up stands, etc. Having said that, it just astonishes me that they want to charge that much for this Joker when it is essentially a rehash. The additional clown mask head is something you'd get as an exclusive bonus item not to mention that the DX 01 and DX 11 brought in the benchmarks for Joker portraits. I do recall the Batman/Bruce Wayne being somewhere around $225 but that one was much more than a rehash. The Bale portrait is perfect, in my opinion, and it was a cool snag for people that hadn't picked up the Begins Bats either on release or for the ridiculous price on the secondary market. The solution is simple though: skip it.
 
You really have to wonder what kind of crack they are smoking. I really don't see the point to this figure. We should have gotten a Commissioner Gordon. Why doesn't Howard get it?
 
The high price on top of a 2.0 with LESS included (fu paper school bus) is just a slap in the face. :slap
