Still on track for an August release, last I heard.

These are toys? I wasn't aware. I sure don't play with them. Says collectible on the boxes.

Haha. I definitely play with them. They're action figures, after all!

Most retailers told me about September and on, but I hope it´s gonna be before christmas :3

 

[paul_atd-i]

I watched the movie again You know what Hot Toys left out, the knifes in his shoes he uses when he crashes the party. Also Hot Toys has never given joker his shot gun.

I would also really like one of those bomb detonators he had

Yeah instead of giving him the glock and the V1 knife they should have gave him his gimmick pop out shoe blade and the Bank Manager's Remington 870 Shotgun.

One it would give us weapons that we don't have. Two we'd almost have all the accessories for the Joker. Finally it would make the Glock exclusive to the Bank Robber figure and the knife exclusive to the V1 Joker. It just doesn't make sense. What does the V1 have going for it now? Now you can get the money, the hands, the cards, the knife and better clothes with other HT releases. Hell the only item that you can't get anywhere else is his base. Wow, what a cool accessory!

Again instead of the glock and knife it should have been the foot blade and remington 870. I'm sure they're saving it for their next Nurse Joker/Interrogation Joker combo with a RPG to boot.

What makes you think there will be a nurse joker?

 

[Cap'n Cook]

What makes you think there will be a nurse joker?

Probably the fact that when the DX comes out we will have 4 Joker incarnations, so why not some more.

 

[vodoun]

That means nothing. HT said this was only getting made for people that missed out on v1 and the Bank Robber plus due to Ledger's death.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

I didn't say it was my viewpoint, was just suggesting it may be what DiFabio was saying.

Can you show me where they stated it was due to his death? I missed that.

 

[DiFabio]

That means nothing. HT said this was only getting made for people that missed out on v1 and the Bank Robber plus due to Ledger's death.

What about the people that "miss out" on this one? That's a ^^^^ argument that Hot Toys conjured up, but a brilliant one at that. If people want the V1 and Bank Robber figures it can be easily had for 100 dollars or less on ebay. So the only people missing out are the ones that aren't interested in them.

How could they pass another Joker up? They sell and they haven't had their take on a smiling head nor the nurse get up, so why not?

come to think of it, the shoe knife is not really a great addition, the shotgun is much better.

PENCIL is what he needs. Really, i cant understand why we get the same crap AGAIN (knife, cards and pistol) when they can mix things up for a change, and give us not only the pencil as a great prop. But the same pencil is one of THE defining iconic memorable moments of Heath's new age Joker, and the fact that it was in the same damned scene that this figure is based around (grenade jacket mob scene)! It makes no sense at all. Why give us the same things again, that he didnt even use in that scene ffs! Knife i can understand, it's iconic too. Cards, sure, why not. But pistol, c'mon, ditch it and give us the pencil!

 

[MaulFan]

It's very simple why we get the same crap again, because it's already done.

Hot Toys details accessories very well, but sometimes they don't offer up as much along the lines of unique or correct as they should.

Really, the money with the Joker is pointless, it was never in the movie, but we get it with every figure.

TDK Batman includes batarangs that he doesn't use because it gives him accessories and they already had them from the first figure.

I'm actually surprised we got the machine gun with the BR figure, it has such little screen use, the glock at least is in a number of scenes so that made sense including.

They could also give us more knives as he used a couple different ones ( I don't mean all the ones they show off at MCU ), but we get just the one.

All these companies make nice figures but sometimes the thoroughness and quality of accessory choices isn't there, and then other times it's above and beyond, which makes the lackluster ones stand out even more.

besides paint job improvement, could hot toys have possibly corrected the GCPD logo on the cop hat?
