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

cr0w, what's the purple of the overcoat like in hand?

 

[cr0w]

It's a better purple than the V1, but then again I never had issues with the V1 color...I guess I got one out of a good batch. Many people will say it's too dark, but the pictures I took accurately reflect what it looks like in person.

wow!!!!!!!!! i soo can't wait to get mine!!!!

great pics!

 

[cr0w]

Couple more.

Nope, no customs fee at all. He marked it all just right.

And yeah, Snake Doctor...it's amazing to me how "toy-like" the V1 seems in comparison to this one. I never thought I'd use that word to describe the V1/BR combo, but damn.

Awesome! Good stuff then, enjoy.

Also, I think I remember someone saying the coat isn't wired...there is a very, very thin wire in the bottom of the coat, after all. It's not noticeable unless you actually check, but it's there.

Looking good. The red make-up looks a little weak though.

Agreed. It looks kind of faded.

 

[cr0w]

Yeah it is a little light, but it's much better than their previous attempts.

Yeah quite thin! Looking awesome, love the coat color lol
Side note - i tracked down some basically screen identical orange/reddy satin/silky lining for the purple coat, and am going to try it out, will keep you all posted

I would really like the PERS eyes on the previous bank robber sculpt.. wonder if someone will ever customize theirs.. Shouldnt be impossible to pull off! Just really risky

Blakus: IF you pull it off right, I'd be interested in you doing it for me

Wouldnt it be WAY easier just to paint the DX sculpt to look like the BR joker? Theres a couple of pics in this thread of people who have already repainted theirs.

Like this?

But I guess if you don't want the DX head, it'd be....difficult enough to mod the BR head.

 

[eczamurai]

yeah but I like the more stern expression on the BR joker, anyways, I shouldnt complain, since I got good ol' Small Studios doing mine!

 

[eczamurai]

hot damn I love how the coat fits in that picture!

No problem, that's the plan. We'll see how we go. Huge job i think. It matches identically to the promo shots, that faded out salmony color. I think it looks more accurate than picking a more solid orange as shown in the actual film a fair bit, when the rest of the costume on the figure doesn't pop as much and is nowhere near as vivid with all their lighting tricks etc. It should look awesome. Definately better than the gastly dark red, at the very least. I'm gunna mod up the whole costume until it's proper.

Anyone here know if it's worth cutting the sleeves off again of the sports coat with the new Joker clothing, or doesnt it matter too much? The v1 clothing looked puffy.

 

[eczamurai]

How much would you be asking for the job?

I have my correct fabric lined up too.

Going to practice on the v1 coat.
