When collectors receive this in hand and see how bad the rooting is.

Couldn’t ask for a better response.

My big question is less “how quickly does this sell out” and more “how many waitlists convert once this thing starts shipping…”

Nobody knows considering none of those events happened yet. Were about to find out

10 minutes would be an insane amount of time, if you cant get it in that time, its on you, unless the site crashes.

Hope everyone who wants one gets one.

I have a brand new computer. Will that help?

maybe a little bit, Id say there's 4 factors that play into being able to get this: Your speed, your internet speed, your computer speed, and sideshows servers. Sideshow servers playing this biggest role.

If all of those run smooth you should be fine. If you're really hardcore about getting this you can always practice checking out with a random item on the site so you're familiar with where everything is.

Yep, I suspect a ten minute feeding frenzy if even that.

 

[TheBatman]

Exactly what I imagine the freaks here look like

Definitely Ledger here
Too much hair as always

 

[TheBatman]

Maybe the hair will thin out in production similar to how their sculpts soften on their production pieces.

It’s not really the biggest problem I’d rather get this extreme than a balding heath ledger. Just research some 1/6 hair spray to make it more flat it’s not bad.

Why is that the two choices...?

 

[TheBatman]

Maybe because they've only been collecting for 2 years and havent seen what's possible yet

I mean on the extreme side? Too much hair or too little hair; too much is better to compromise.

I’m guessing your 5 years of expertise can say that’s possible?

I was just about to order this from Toys Blunderland when, fortunately, the brain fog caused by my meds lifted and I came to my senses. Whew!

I bought a 3rd party, haired Joker sculpt a few years ago and it ended up being haired too thin. Nothing I did made it look right because there just wasn’t enough hair to bunch together, style or move around.

I’m of the same mind, too much is the lesser of two evils. It can be styled, trimmed, whatever and made to look good. Although I think that pic of it looking too full is just a matter of futzing personally.

Still not sure if I want a haired Joker though. I think I want to at least have one in hand to see if I prefer it over sculpted.

The hair will thin out as the figure ages. One just has to make sure to outlive the figure. For some of us, that is not a sure thing.

You missed the point of what @Wor-Gar was trying to say...

Thank you that is exactly my point, I don’t have problems futzing with a figure especially if we do it for the aesthetic appearance. With barely any hair you can’t do anything but buy hair, which is worse to invest or try doing yourself.

Be better if they (HT and InArt) just did it right from the get-go.
