Hot Toys TDKR: 1/4th scale Batman [QS001] - Full Reveal & Specs

[Nightwing_000]

The answer to that question is to put it in a different display case away from the other 1/6th figures. No offense but why are you even here if u think that?



Can't u just get your money back now without selling him? Did u have a NRD? If so how much will u have lost if u cancel him now?



How much you getting EB Joker for if u don't mind me asking?

Picking him up for a reasonable £350 off a friend

For you guys wanting the backpack only for DX12 but dont to pay a rediculous £50+ heres a custom on ebay for a fraction of the price, ebay number 230995096889

According to sideshow even if the figure is fine, you can still return it, thus, you might not have to sell him after all and just get a refund from them once they send it to you and just say u didn't want it. I assume u bought it from them?

However, you might keep him and the rest of your 1/4 scale figures if he turns out good then?

I did get him from SS. I will decide once I get him in hand what to do with him. I'd certainly consider keeping him if I can figure out a display option for him and if he turns out to be really great. I think one concern would be the size. If he's slightly smaller than the EB figs the way Terminator endo is that would not be a good thing.

Well that's not a bad price considering these are buy it now for approx $700 on ebay regardless whether they are ones that come with EX items. Also they go for around $500 on ebay on auction, I think you are paying roughly $100 more than they were when they first came out in Hong Kong.

Since he is your friend can u check it out for QC problems?

Ofcourse. I had to convince him through emotional blackmail lol he loved it but i said he already has every 1/6 scale Joker since the first MMS up to the recent DX11 and i want 1 definitive version in 1/4 scale and that was it.

Wow I paid over $120 for mine. Everything always comes out too late. I never knew they were going to do a knock off on this, when I bought the Bat pack.

Well just remember if u don't even like the look of it u can return it to sideshow. I can't believe their policy, they are way too lenient. Which I guess is good for u.

I think one concern would be the size. If he's slightly smaller than the EB figs the way Terminator endo is that would not be a good thing.

Yeah I am worried he won't go with the Enterbay Joker. Do you have that?

So a figure has to be large for you consider it a definitive version?

True, i mean if you buy the original it means you can advertise the whole package as genuine Hot Toys. But some people who have purchased 2 DX12 but want different poses, this "knock off" is an amazing reproduction and as i said its worth £20+ of any collectors money.

Not at all, i believe even the DX11 is well defined for the jail cell scene but in 1/4 scale up to now this is the best and not sure if even Hot Toys will top it. Another example is the NECA 1/4 mark 7 iron man, its an amazing job even with the paintwork. But its not a definitive version e.g it has no extra accessories or headsculpts but for £70 it does the job. But i believe if an artist has a bigger canvas the artwork can be better portrayed

Yeah I have two and that is all I wanted it for. If I had of known there would of been KO in the future I wouldn't of bought it.

So you think the Enterbay Joker is the best Ledger Joker so far? I think the overall quality would be better if Hot Toys does a 1/4 scale Joker but like you I am not sure it will be able to beat the sculpt on Enterbays one.

But i believe if an artist has a bigger canvas the artwork can be better portrayed

Hmm not sure about that. Some artist are just used to 1/6th and making sculpt larger figures when they do not normally do that might actually make them not perform as well.

I agree there some artists who amaze at 1/6, the 1/4 joker is an outstanding job from enterbay. Heath Ledger down to the bone and the makeup is perfect as was the first DX Joker by Hot Toys. They chose the artist carefully and he just topped it with the 1/4 head, im sure enterbay were amazed lol just hope hot toys chose the best artist they could to sculpt their 1/4 bruce wayne.

All depends on your display options. I've ultimately decided that the 1/4 scale doesn't really fit so I'm selling my EB versions and this guy once I get him. I think they are great but I just don't have the room or ability to display them a way I'd like.

"He chose...poorly."

Thanks for your clever opinion.

 

[Nightwing_000]

So anyone had any inside news on release dates..?

So anyone had any inside news on release dates..?

Sideshow has it listed at August 2013.. Not holding my breath.

 

[BatBrain]

My guess is he will appear in the next 'coming soon' pic from HT along with Stark, Spidey, Stormshadow and maybe Ada Wong. I wouldn't expect that pic for a while though...
