Hot Toys The Dark Knight Joker DX/Artisan 1/6 Scale Figure

[MGS_OldBoy57]

I returned my impostor joker-I was not impressed.
The sculpts solid but the paintwork was ass.
Got the artisan on order so I’m hoping they are taking their time to fix it/but this is hot toys…..

I’m in the middle of the road on that sculpt. It’s not bad but not very good either. It’s ok

It has more life to it then my old dx11 at least.

The disappointment was pretty high.
The worst bit was you could see it’s a good sculpt.
the paint apps were atrocious tho.
Hot toys need to take a good hard look
At themselves

They are too busy milking the WB license for cash before they may lose it.

Yep the sculpt on this is amazing, paint lazy even sloppy machine job

Suprises me some of you arent impressed by the paint. Dont have him in hand but in video's the head looks very well done paintwise. I have the purple coat Artisan on order and i think this whole imposter version was indeed a sort of prototype release to see how it goes, couse it came out of nowhere and did release before the purple coat one

The face paint just looks too factory manufactured. Doesn’t look natural at all. Very much needs that “hand painted” look, which it currently lacks. It’s almost like they used the exact same painting method that they used on the DX11.

It's machine painted and if they're going for rooted hair being the only "artsian" about these figures the line will fail. For example Anakin apparently is a complete rehash save the head. Early releases will have hype but if it's only rooted hair and limited to boot and not an overall quality lift it will fizzle out fast.

Ah alright its not as smeared as inart but i do like the sharpness. I imagine it takes away some realism. For the hair i think rooted hair always increase realism big time over sculpted.
