Damn, this is sweet! I'm double confident, now that wookster has confirmed it twice!
I hope its released by the end of this month. Haven't gotten myself a birthday present yet, this year. This'll be perfect
That'll be a total of 4 jokers in shelf

My birthdays the 26th
Hehe I was due on the 26th ............ long story short, my mom was half dead when I finally came out
October birthdays
Just spoke with my hot toys buddy and he told me the DX Joker is going to be packed 3 figures per case instead of the usual 6 figures per case. He stated the boxes are much bigger and nicer! HMMMM......
Yeah, the owner of Toys2 also stated the box will be about double the size of normal, I don't see the point of that, seems wasteful to me, but would be nice if that was indication that 2 True Type bodies are in the set instead of the one.

Oh wow! I would assume its just a basic 2X the size of a normal TDK box.

Double the size...as in Predator/Aliens boxes? Or just thicker in all dimensions?
I hope the box artwork doesn't continue the BR Joker box's odd aesthetic. I want it to be in line with all the other boxes in the TDK line, i.e. dark blue hues.

I agree. Storing a bigger box woo hoo. I'd give HT a pass on storage if it did include a second TT which, we know is not going to happen.
Sadly, that's already passed, though maybe you don't have him, Two-Face's box is also a unique setup like BR Joker, after the 2 Batmans and first Joker, HT just did whatever, I didn't like that either though.
What I wonder is, will the art be TDK designs, or will there be a formula for all DX boxes to help sell their being super special figures compared to the rest, and then figure-centric graphics placed into that template.

You mean, they'll be gold and with a faux-diamond encrusted "DX" put squarely on %50 of the box?
I forgot about the Two-Face box. I think I'm okay with that one because it uses a dark color palate, although you're right it doesn't fit in with the others. The Tumbler and Batpod boxes did keep the designs of the first boxes though.
I'm not sure what we're in for, but as a graphic artist, I enjoy the box art on products, or at least checking it out as some really suck, as much as the product itself.
I agree, even though it departed, the Two-Face box art was much better than the BR, the BR one was just stupid to me. The outer sleeve was ok, but the inner box, black area just looks goofy.
Of the 3 consistent boxes, this one was my favorite.

Yeah Batman has the best boxes. At this point though, it does look a bit plain. Spruce it up, DX! I'm more interested to see what they do with DX Batman's more than Joker's, because it'd be a bit less predictable.

I have come to accept graphic changes but the size issue really bugs me. I have recently pulled all of my boxes out of my display because of this.

I wonder if it'll be on par with the box for "The Godfather"
I throw out all my figure boxes, but I am concerned with size from a shipping fee standpoint, I believe box dimensions are as much a factor in shipping costs as weight of the product. I don't want to spend more on shipping because excessive, needless box size is added. Hopefully DX Joker's setup looks justified. It's just odd, what with making the Predator boxes continually smaller with wolf and the P1 figures, to go and make a needlessly big box for Joker just because it's a DX, so hopefully the size makes sense and seems logical.

Wooks, you da man. You paid your dues and earned your cred. It is the "others" who haven't earned their stripe we raise an eyebrow too

I actually like displaying the box behind the figure in it's individual case look especial the batman box but I guess for collectors that barely have enough space for the collectible the box becomes more of a burden
Man again I wish I had that problemAlso I am inexperienced here but how accurate is the product shot showing the list of content vs the actual content cause if the DX Joker pic is the indicator of what is included (oh and the actual list of content in the description) there really is no chance of an extra TT figure being included.
Dam Toys2 was closed yesterday so I am going today again pull his brains
PS TDK BM V1 Box is so nice that with the LED lighting on top the logo literally jumps out of the box!

I've got like 100 1/6 figures, I can't possibly keep all the boxes in storage, let alone display
The only boxes I keep are for things that I need the protection for moving.
