Well now this has completely ruined the HT sculpt for me. Thanks a lot :/

Crazy to me that a company who prides themselves on making the very best figures in the world wouldn’t just back up a truckload of cash for one of these custom artists to do a figure or head sculpt for a special character like this Joker. They basically did that for the DX11 and look how highly regarded that figure still is, people still point to it as the best HT release.

I have the Mishi custom head. It is truly amazing. I cannot wait for my Hot Toys Joker to hit the states so that I can display it properly. Does anyone know where I can get a 1/4 chair or bench?

Maybe if they could have done a better job if they gave it to a better sculptor, Yulli doesn't have many home run sculpts, except maybe the Mime Joker and BD Terminator.

Yeah she use to kinda be their ace (Bank Robber Joker was a revelation for it's time), but she hasn't improved much since the old days. This thing should be a home run. Both 1/4 figures (BB), seem half assed and dated. Shame considering they built a large portion of the company on the back of Nolan's trilogy.

The DCEU figures shouldn't be smoking these like they are. (Letoker, Batfleck).

Still, it's probably pretty impressive in hand and none of your friends are going to notice the flaws the freaks do.

I just don't understand how people aren't seeing Heath in there, these photos have a fantastic likeness, I feel if it had rooted hair then it would solve most of the issues people have.

I’d be interested to see how much Mishi custom was too.

 

[ronskimomo]

He is making a new one. The price wasn’t cheap, but I thought it was fair. I believe it was in the 900s.

$950 + shipping to be exact.

Gregs customs I believe is doing or did 1:4 and his joker likeness is also killer.

Gregs 1:4

I recently stepped into 1:4 with this Bootleg as I had a 1:4 body spare. This kit cost me $90 but plan to get it repainted and haired.
For what Hot Toys is asking I'd expect a better likeness than a $90 bootleg set lol.

$950 for just a head? Insane. How can a little 1/4 head cost as much as a full 1/3 statue from Prime 1.

Because someone discovered that people will pay that and it's the way it has been ever since with Ledger Joker.

I mean even those customs, even though they look great, aren't 100 percent. The painted ones seem a little pudgey to me - but it's absurd that considering it's still not 100 percent and not even with a well tailored body that it costs that much. I'd much rather have the HT version with some parts being off than a slightly but not altogether better version of just a head for almost twice the cost.

One thing I’ve learned about all this Joker nitpicking and customs over the past decade is that more money creates a bigger illusion of quality.

Looks really good. I most likely we’ll add the Rotten hair to my joker once He gets in but won’t be for sometime
