HT DX 2.0 TDK Joker - teaser image

[TheFiend]

These are the best PERS yet.

Yeah, I'm not seeing the puppy dog thing either. I don't know if this is the best PERS yet but it's definitely on par with Keaton and Nicholson.

 

[Maglor]

The 2.0 is vastly superior. People are saying the hair isn't any better? Really? Look at the hairline. THe original DX01 looks like a helmet by comparison.

And look at how much smaller the eye openings are.

Hi. I'm a little baby. Wanna know how I got these scars?

 

[DiFabio]

These are the best PERS yet.

You're nuts.

With that latest teaser the eyes look no different than the original DX 01 proto. The white of the eyes is still too much as is the size of the actual eye.

Compare to these great attempts,

I'm glad you brought that up, I noticed too. I always hated that wavy line at the hairline on the DX01. But I think people are referring more to the color than the actual sculpting. Unless I missed something somewhere.

The hair is an improvement as far as sculpt goes. It's pretty seamless how the hair is sculpted into the scalp of the head.

I'm still not seeing it Di. They look pretty good to me.

If anything, I think they look smaller than Sparrows.

Nice comparison shot but isn't anyone else bothered by the over-texturized skin??

Yeah the skin definitely appears over-texturized, almost like he has pockmarks all over his face, but in hand you won't even notice them. It's really only on high res photos where you'll see it.

The hair is definitely my favorite part of this new sculpt. I think what could've helped this teaser a bit more is if they didn't cut off the right side of this face in the shot. You can't see the rest of his cheeks or eyebrow so right now the jaw looks a little long and the head a little squat.

There's still something. Other me about the sculpt or the make-up infant put my figure on which one it is or of it's both

Depending on price and how well the EB one turns out, I may not get this one and just get all the EB releases.

Yeh, I remember the hires '89 Joker pics showing a similar texture. Doesn't concern me at all.

I'm already there Jye. 2 PFs with the LOTR RWOS PF PO'd

Literally the only 2 things stopping me from not being fully committed to EB's 1/4 TDK items right now is that there haven't been any teases for a TDK Suit Batman aaaand if I'm going to have Bats and Joker in 1/4, I'd want Bane too and Ht doesn't seem to be moving in on their 1/4 announcements

 

[Maglor]

Pic 1 comes out; "DX01 is now trash, quick, lets sell it"
Pic 2 comes out; "This is the worst sculpt ever. Good thing I knew I was never letting DX01 go"
Pic 3 comes out; "This looks ok, but DX01 is still good"

Full picture released - first 2 hours - "This blows, Hot Toys fails again, I'm not going to buy it. We should boycott Hot Toys. Wheres light cycle?"
Full picture released - 1 week later; "This is actually better than DX01"
Figure released - Day 1 - "looks like crap, Hot Toys fails again"
Figure released - Week 1 - "OMG OMG this is the best figure ever"

Stop over analyzing these teasers.

Best post in the thread so far.

Fireworks will be lit.

There won't be any fireworks.

Ohh.....

well...hello, welcome aboard the darkside, nice to meet you mate.

I'm going to backpedal here and agree that I DO think it's the party scene face. It's the same smirky, cocky grin, and he's wearing the coat. The interrogation scene...his makeup is more smeared...
I also think that the interrogation table, like the ship wheel for Jack Sparrow, will be an extra bonus accessory.

Looks the same to me

2. His semi-wide-eye expression. I think the sculpt would have looked better if his eyes were beadier with less white-of-the-eye showing.

The figure will have PERS, so it could also depend on the position of the eyes in the teaser.

Yeah, it's just cos he's looking a little bit downward.

You're nuts.

With that latest teaser the eyes look no different than the original DX 01 proto. The white of the eyes is still too much as is the size of the actual eye.

Compare to these great attempts,

I might have picked those pictures exactly to make my point.



I'm not trying to disagree just to be disagreeable, I just think the PERS is great on this. They are at least among the smallest openings we have seen yet. Look how much eyelid is covering the iris.

I'm still not seeing it Di. They look pretty good to me.

If anything, I think they look smaller than Sparrows.

Although it's prolly not fair to say for sure until they are both in hand, that is the feeling I'm getting.

Nah...The nose is too big and the chin sticks out too far.

 

[jye4ever]

Man, that's an amazing Lego Depp fo sure.

^^^ Sorry, too lazy to stick the hair back on.

Looks the same to me

Gotta be joking...


Similar expression though. And for the record, I still love my Mattel Joker.
