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

[Calcifer]

80% of my Joker is a DX 01. Just stuck a new head on, can't see the problem discussing that in the DX 01 Joker thread?

When i get my Kato gear to go along with my MRM sculpt ..all that will be left of the dx on my figure will be.. the shoes,hands,knife,cards,cash,chain,socks,suspenders,machine gun, handgun ...and the display stand

Sure it will only be like 10% dx after that, but that's enough imo for me to use this thread.

 

[Calcifer]

Or boring.

What's your problem?

 

[vodoun]

Just out of curiosity, nothing else... what does the total come to for that custom, Calcifer?

Technically it will still have the DX body though, right?

 

[monkeyrobotmaster]

Trying to get collectors or anyone to always agree and get along with each other is like saying "I will win the war on drug all by myself!" Unrealistic, and pointless IMO.

I feel it would be more boring without the custom stuff in here, and if you want to get really technical about it, no HT stuff should be posted on this board since it's SS's. Yes they import HT merchandise, but they don't make it. Maybe HT should start their own message board too since SS doesn't have any DC licenses. These threads exist so we can post what we like. I just don't see the problem.

I of coarse will respect your opinion and not post any custom stuff in here, but I can't stop anyone else. Nor will I try to, that's not my place to tell others what and were they should post things.

No , Kato's set is based on the trutype advanced not the slim, if you look at the past few pictures of the joker with the bobby C sculpt you can see how the slim is not right for the joker...well to me it's not right and obviously it's not right to Kato.

So the body is also being changed

Just out of curiosity, nothing else... what does the total come to for that custom, Calcifer?

Please don't make me sum it up, i don't even like thinking about it

 

[DiFabio]

It's boring to me, how can I make it any clearer?

It would be better if each custom Joker had it's own custom thread in the custom section.

OR

Have a dedicated thread for each custom Joker in this DC section.

It would certainly limit hostilities. Look what happened to Bobby's thread, locked up because of stupid fights.

This is the Hot Toys MMS DX 01 Joker thread, discussions pertaining to it should be in here. Likewise, other works should have their own dedicated threads.

Anywhere but in here.

Bobby had his own thread for his custom in the customs section and that's what got shut down. Not because he was posting in here. So having separate threads won't stop any hostilities. Jerks float around and post were they like. It's very clear you find custom stuff boring, but it doesn't seem like many agree or care. The only way to stop the mingling of topics is to shut down the whole site. It's like this in every thread I've read, and I'm sure it's the same way in the ones I've not. Again, sorry you feel that way though man, must be frustrating.

 

[DiFabio]

My boredom quip was directed at the fights that go on on here, not customs.

Whatever.

When arguments arise I point out the source. It'll happen again and just discussing this will snowball into something, that's how it is.

Of coarse! That's what keeps things interesting though.

Or boring.

 

[monkeyrobotmaster]

Ah, well the fights are pretty stupid, but that doesn't seem like it will stop either. I'd bet money that if there was only talk about the DX01 in here someone would find something to fight about. Like your pose is dumb or I don't like the direction you've got the eyes looking!

 

[karamazov80]

Well, since I am a mod , let me say that Fabio is right in my opinion. This discussion on BobbyC joker versus the monkey figure or whatever is better suited for the customs section. Unless you want to discuss how the DX parts help to make these customs so great or whatever.

Threads veer off course a bit, and that's fine (don't look at the Wolverine thread, whatever you do ), but let's not let this thread go too far off the rails, if you please. If there is nothing to say about the DX figure, then leave the thread alone!

 

[Maglor]

What's your problem?

He hates customs. Just ignore him.

 

[Geil]

Aren't most custom heads used to enhance the DX01 as they tend to be put on the DX body and clothes?
I personally don't mind seeing these wonderful customs in this thread. Usually what is irritating is how some members tend to comment with the intention to trigger conflict and there is plenty of that going around

 

[monkeyrobotmaster]

Custom or not that argument should have never happened to begin with. There is no competition, we just like to make cool stuff and share with you guys. Anyway, there you have it a mod has said no more, so no more, unless anyone wants this thread closed too. You guys can post custom stuff on one of my threads if you want, as long as there are no stupid arguments.

P.S. The DX Joker sure was awesome!

 

[karamazov80]

Talking about the DX figure with a custom head is one thing. But when the conversation starts focusing exclusively on debates over the custom heads, then the thread is losing its focus. This is a DX Joker thread, so that should be the core of the conversation.

I don't think he meant no more posting of customs, mrm. Read below:

Hell, when I get that laughing Joker head from you, mrm, I just might post it here because it'll on my DX Joker body and clothes.

 

[Rorywan]

As monkey pointed out, jerks will post wherever they want, not a lot anyone can do about that. Personally I couldn't be bothered even looking in this thread if people were not enjoying the figure, posting their pics and doing their own artistic things with it? Surely that should be encouraged? And sorry DiFabio the idea that each custom should have it's own thread is just silly, the whole board would become a mess.

This is an open discussion forum, you cannot control these things that clinically without taking the life and energy out of a thread completely, yes it goes crazy sometimes but that's the nature of any active vibrant forum. If no more customs were posted in here, what exactly would? The thread would have died ages ago. So what's your problem exactly? Do you just want the thread gone? Why can you not just ignore it and let others enjoy themselves.

It seems a bit "bah-humbug Scrooge" to me, I have to say.


Or am I not allowed to say that in this thread? Since DiFabio has started this new conversation about "Customs in HT DX threads" which is wildly off topic IMO!

...relax a little?

I was more referring to the debate over which custom head is better and whatnot. Perhaps I should have worded that more clearly, oh well. I really don't know why there should ever be any arguments at all, I mean it's always some ridiculous opinion base bickering over unimportant nonsense. I just don't get why everyone can just be respectful of someone's opinion. Very rude.

Not sure if you are targeting Fabio or me here, but censorship and staleness are not goals here. However, there are certain threads devoted to certain topics, and in order to make the board navigable, and in order to minimize clutter and redundancy, folks should stay on topic for the most part (particularly in non-sandbox threads).

Of course, threads go off course and can have lively (even heated) discussions, but this thread went off on the custom head debate for long enough, and if there is more of that to be had, that's fine. But this thread isn't the place for it given that there are apparently other, existing threads for such discussion. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask me via PM.
