Sculpt still looking like a cosplayer, yes the default one. Bad straight green colored hair, proto color was way better and had variation.
The tie pattern and vest color are what I like best about this. I hate HT's tie.
But those overcoat lapels... man, I don't know why they made them so high. Even HT has better positioned lapels.
I really like the JND sculpt.
Yesterday I have unboxed the HT Artisan.
I don't know what HT was thinking with the hair color. Barely any variation, just light green.
The color and hairline throws off the likeness for me.
Additionally the face paint didn't impress me at all.
InArt has the best hair, especially the jail scene Joker and I like their matte face paint. Unfortunately the likeness isn't as good as JND and HT.
Therefore I'll most likely prefer JND's sculpt over any other licensed release.
Hot Toys Artisan vs InArt Jail Scene (Quick phone pics):
I agree with the hair on the JND. I don't understand why they made it dark green. In some places it's almost black.
On top of that, it's completely straight and therefore looks too long. That's quite disappointing.
Assembly doesn't look too difficult. I think they made it as easy as possible.
Attaching the tie has usually been the most annoying part for me while doing kitbashes, but their system looks to be working great.
Also, as
@Chopper Face mentioned, It's a good way to get familiar with the figure body.
