Hot Toys - MMS DX 01- The Dark Knight - The Joker spec and pics

[Toast]

Thats awesome! but will prob be expensive as hell.

If that is the case (and I really don't think this will be it) I would be worried, its hard enough changing out heads to have to worry about that everytime you want to pose the eyes differently.

It would look better than a removable hairpiece IMO but yeah it would be a b**** to adjust. We'll probably find out in a few days when they put up the store display.

G
PERS is a brand new technique applies to Hot Toys MMSDX figurines, special features include:
l Unique designed eyeballs with colored Translucent Iris
l Simultaneous Positionable Eyeball Function
l Work in all direction, as natural as human eyes

Hmmm....from the wording they are not independent of each other, they move together and in all directions.

I have no clue how it would be done.

 

[CristiMAN]

Amazing figure! Really amazing. But I have version 1 and Bank Robber. Any news about the price?

 

[Rock83]

I wonder what is so special about it that its a DX movie masterpiece and not an regular masterpiece

Because these guys are involved

 

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

Complete redo of the outfit, moveable eyes and light up base.

Yeah but why start a new line? I wonder what else they will deem perfect enough for the DX logo instead of a star..

 

[Agen]

Just amazing!

This is my guess, I can see it being like a light switch underneath the hair and on the back of the neck part. Just a little lever that you can adjust, up/down and left/right.

Just a guess.

hell yeah glad i ordered mine from joe already

 

[Salvation/Damnation]

I wonder if they add the buckle in the back of his vest? If i get this, i'm buying a version 1 purple coat and the original shoes, the ones here look dirty, but it's no problem

 

[seniram6]

Holy Dog^^^^!

 

[The Mike]

Whoa. I'm glad I bought all of those TrueTypes a while back. I can't wait!

 

[Batman5]

Simply amazing. And I was this close to getting the Hot Toys v.1 or Medicom version... this is going to be one of the best for 2009!

The proto pic show only the make-up head move the eyes then I think only this head can do. The look of hair root at forehead make me think it's two parts, hair and head sculpt. We remove the hair and adjust the eye.

WOW looks freakin insane!!!!!!!! THAT is what they should do when they offer 2 different figures. Offer BOTH costumes. Like the Two Face/Dent, they should come with everything to display two figures, and all you need to buy is another body, or they should even throw that in.
First of all my likes
LIKES
Another Joker, hell yeah, i'm an addict
Redone V1 costume, looks great so far, little tweaks here and there
Complete kit, nothing to rebuy and kitbash bar a body
Movable eyes, i'm undecided on these, but they seem to be a bonus, and look pretty decent!
Cop joker sculpt looks fantastic, i keep seeing forrest gump style tom hanks a bit too much though, that retardish look with the eyes in a few different places, otherwise, it's fantastic and very realistic.
New joker head sculpt is amazing too.
Eyes have that glossy realistic look with the translucent iris ( FINALLY )
Purple jacket material looks AMAZING

Now Dislikes
The price, obviously, its gunna be PRICEY
Joker makeup looks a little 'too' perfect. I know it was well done then, but not THAT well done, looks too thick, and not powdery enough.
Joker hair looks too bluey green, instead of a lighter, more striking green.
Movable eyes look a tad odd in some positions.
NO DAMN big smiling grin on that sculpt, very dissappointed with this aspect
and finally,
THE PRICE

Otherwise i can't effin wait, GO HOT TOYS, GO! You actually listen to customers (bar the teeth grin sculpt part ) and offer just incredible quality stuff. What more could we ask for (besides an alfred and gordon )

 

[Voorhees27]

Whoa. I'm glad I bought all of those TrueTypes a while back. I can't wait!

Well if anyone is in need of more TT's, Toys2 just listed a preorder (due to arrive the same time as this figure) for the newest caucasian version ($29.99)

[blakus939]

btw, it seems this release is more a Joker release plain and true, with the cop aspect thrown in as a bonus.

 

[polonium]

Distributor in my country already mark the price of this set at 1.45 time the v1 Joker price. Very reasonable price.

 

[Hydeous]

My dealer just had these up when I went to the shop a few hours ago. The PO price is $180USD.

I am one of the very few that didn't buy a BR Joker -- though I was considering getting one in the next few months. Now I have decisions to make.

Do I get a BR Joker w/ mask?
Do I get a V1 Joker w/ Bank Robber 2nd head (which I may be able to find on ebay after this revelation)?
Do I get this V3 Joker/ Police Officer?

And -- how do I fill in the missing accessories? The mask, the machine gun, the knife, etc. from the figures I don't get?

Does anyone have comparison pictures of the BR headsculpt and this headsculpt? I can't decide which I prefer. It may come down to price ... cheapest wins.

At this point, it is pointless get to get V1. This Cop Joker includes everything the V1 had, but better. So get the BR Joker and Cop Joker and an extra truetype body and you should be set.
