Joker and Penguin (Batman) Film figures request

[Seventh Doctor Fan]

I was wondering if any of the guys here could help me on this one. Since my mum is buying me the 13 inch figure of the Heath Ledger joker:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product...&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=463374953&pf_rd_i=468294

It at all possible if someone could make me a 12 inch figure of the Joker from the 1989 film Batman? Abit like the one in this picture here:

Also is it possible if someone could make me a 12 inch figure of the Penguin from the 1992 film Batman Returns. How much would the figure(s) and postage cost in total?

Many thanks

George

I would recomend you get the hot toys joker over the joker your looking at personally.
As for the 1989 joker there were 100 figures made of him but some people make customs too.
This is mine and is the one that was made although this includes a custom xenoviper head and custom cocoboloboy hat. It can be found on ebay now and then under nicholson joker and 1989 joker , you just have to patient. I got mine for £100.00 shipped from Japan.

The one you have a photograph of is figure master les's personal custom if I'm not mistaken.
As for the penguin , I know this guy made one.
Not sure if he sells them though.

Good luck.

Thought I would re-post my consolidated info here, just so no-one else wastes time to give you the same stuff.

That's a custom made by FML, Figure Master Les, Les Walker.

His own head sculpt, but I think some of the clothes are a custom of the century toys ver. Some appear to be full custom.

This one here:

https://cgi.ebay.com/Batman-JOKER-J...67566090QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0

Is about, well way over £200. Is there a way I could have one made for a price that is just slightly under £200?

 

[uscmhicks]

there using fengs photos there and thats not even the headsculpt that on the figure...
tut tut tut. I bet they don't have fengs permission.

The headsculpt that comes with the figure isn't the one in the black background photos with the batman sign.
I will contact xenoviper since he is in close connection with feng just to be sure.

I didn't know this. Do you think anyone on this forum would be prepared to make me a 1/6 1989 Batman Joker and a 1/6 1992 Batman Returns Penguin?

I would contact this guy about the penguin.

As for the Joker I think your best bet would be buying one of those ebay sales or waiting for an ebay sale cheaper ( if there still around , they seem to go for quite alot now and since theres supposedly only 100 I'm not suprised ) then contact Les or xenoviper for a custom headsculpt.

This is Les's thread although his computer is currently down.

This is xenovipers thread.
https://sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17824

They both sell different custom heads and there both awesome.
The one in the photos I posted is xenovipers although I will hopefully one day be able to get Les's head too.

They usually are made to fit onto a hot toys body which you could buy on ebay too. Switch the clothes out with the figure from ebay , buy a custom head and your set.

I think this would be cheaper than getting one custom made from someone else since that would probably be alot of hassle.
Anyway , hope you get it sorted.

Oh and by the way , my fave of the old batman movies is the 89 batman !.

Really? The one on ebay is way over £200.

The outfits for Joker and Penguin are terribly complex and parts are not readily available. I wouldn't count on anyone offering to make these figures for you inexpensively. Especially with manufactured versions going for what they are.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Most mass produced figures will be cheaper than a one off custom, as the fabrics have to be sourced and made for one figure and you are paying for the creators time and skill.

You won't get a cheaper made full out custom. As uscmhicks said, you'd be better off getting one of the links I posted and a custom head. But perhaps wait for a deal on eBay.

I know where you can get the pants

Yes and they are brilliant.

Custom Workz says that they will be able to make these for me.

I have asked Custom Workz to only make the DeVito Penguin figure, since the Joker figure he was going to make didn't come with checkered pants, hat etc. So I have bought the one on ebay:

https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Batman-JOKER...14&_trkparms=72:1301|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318

and have asked whether he could make the DeVito figure to look like its screen accurate with umbrella.

Here are some more photos from Xenoviper - so happy with it

 

[Seventh Doctor Fan]

These are brilliant. You got any more pictures showing the whole costume?
