I was specifically talking about Heath Ledger's Joker. :monkey5
 
I think there's no way this is having real hair.they are going to layer the hair,similar to thor and whiplash.I would personally like to see some real hair added.I think adam pretty much perfected that look,and imo it looks better than bobby c,s real hair.

Yeah Adams combo of sculpted and real hair is the best. Its the most screen accurate joker hair I've seen
 
Does someone have a pic of this? I've probably seen it but didn't realize it had both sculpted and real hair.

You pretty much nailed it man. Excellent observation. A lot of people throw in all the comparison and not think of that aspect. Its something that can be really appreciated when seen in hand. What differentiate it from other 1/6 headsculpt is realism.
I'm glad you caught on with that because people bash Bobby's all the time because of the price but not fairly make the comparison towards the other 1/6 Jokers.

As far as realism goes, Bobby's is a masterpiece. It has a real humanly qualities when seen in hand. A big part of it is the punched-in hair. It doesnt have the wig qualities that a mass produced figure would have.
I think the next evolution on figures is silicone with punched in hair.
Bobby actually mentioned that he approach Hot Toys and wanted to collaborate with them on this process but Hot toys turned it down. At the moment, its too time consuming and the price point is still too much.

:1-1:


In terms of straight-up realism, no one has topped Bobby's.



The comic, animated and Jack Nicholson Joker have green pubes.

Something to think about.

Still don't undestand how come Adam was never hired for Hot Toys. He is one of the most talented 1/6 sculptor I've ever seen..

Ever think location has something to do with it?
 
that sculpt is better than the one people wasted a grand on

There are a lot of Joker custom head and I've probably seen all of them. The thing is I don't know who made which or what they went for. All I know is that there are many that are flat out hideous and don't look like Ledger. These same hideous heads have the kato outfit on. So, here is this figure with a super duper accurate expensive outfit with an ugly non-accurate head sculpt.
 
They lied basically

They said they were going sculpted for BW in an interview :lol

Why would they lie? What would be the point of lying to customers about a product, knowing full well the truth will come out before they even have the chance to preorder? How stupid do people think this company is?

It is much more likely that the were, at the time of the statement, trying to go with sculpted hair, but were forced for one reason or another to switch to rooted.

Clearly they changed their plans for one reason or another :dunno
