Mars Toys 1/6 Prank Villain (Three versions of Cesar Romero's Joker)

[Asta]

That's what I was bringing up about how these runs work and the slots these companies have with the manufacturing. How do you stick a second run without disrupting the runs of other companies? If I was the manufacturer I would say, "Yeah, I can fit you in. I'v got an overworked crew I can make work at night. It'll be rushed but I can get for you."

Sounds very much like what probably happened.

I hope the Dynamic Duo second batch has not started production so that Mars Toys can address any potential issues that may produce an inferior batch. I just pre-ordered the Duo yesterday. I know it was a different company but was the Present Toys Indiana Jones 2nd batch as good or better than the 1st batch?

Mafia's language is ******* awful.

If we still had moderators paying attention to the rules that video post would be deleted.

But that's how the mafia speaks as you'll hear in any Martin Scorcese mafia movie.

In the video comments the person who raised the point about the sloppy second Joker confirmed this:

Agent Silver Fox There’s no magnets. Joao said to me he said he was told they did but theres none mine. It’s a sticky tape!

So the factory forgot to attach the magnets to the tape on theirs, and at least on one other that was photographed with the vest open.

Agent Silver Fox I’m on One Six Figure Focus Hope Show next Monday. If people want more I’ll talk about it on there

One more thing to keep an eye out for.


Still, all in all, you have to ask yourself: am I still happy to get a Romero Joker?

My answer would be 'yes'

I think you'd get killed if you vaped. It's the new 52 Mafia or New Mutants Mafia, perhaps.

The guy is heavy set, dresses like a Harley dude, butches himself up with a beard... and collects dolls.

It's still quite unbelievable that we have him, after Hot Toys left us hanging.

Hopefully with this blowing up now, to the point where Mars actually made a post saying they'll improve, it means good news for the quality of Riddler, Penguin, Catwoman, et al.

They used the same tailor on their Batman Baggy Pants too.

For anybody collecting 7 inch action figures: the newer figures from Mattel, Hasbro and others all come with tiny clear rubber bands. I always keep them to fix stuff on my figures. These work perfectly for loose joints and keeping clothes in place. Since Joker wears a tie, you can put a rubberband under the tie and fix the collar around the neck this way. This will be invisible and might be the easiest way to keep the collar in place without glueing it. It’ll be at least worth a try.

Looking forward to my batch 2 figure (don’t want to call it a 2.0 because that’s something different) and to comparing it with the batch 1.

A few very overly sensitive bunch here...

But the collar, man! The collar!!!!

My Joker cleared customs today. Admittedly, I'm not as excited to receive him now that I'm seeing the issues being reported. I managed to pick up a tie from Dino so I hope that will help mask the shirt issue. Now that I've seen it, it's going to be really hard to unsee it. Hopefully, the vest issue can be fixed and I'm not as worried about the incorrect hand. I'm really thankful the face paint apps seem to be on par with the first batch, but the shirt is my major concern. I hope Kit can get Mars to replace the shirt if this affects the entire production run. On the bright side, this SHOULD ensure that Riddler gets some good quality control.

So is it normal for the under vest not to close all the way?
I can barley get the top magnet on but the vest feels like a size too small for the body.

So that's another explanation for the photos with the vests left open. They have magnets but the vest is too small to close.

Everyone so far also has the collar issue, whether they realise it or not.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Has everyone conspired together and deliberately taken crappy photos on top of the problems?

The shirt collar looks frayed. The lapel has a nasty pressing line.

Clearly the guy snapped this picture off before even getting all the plastic off the figure.

You missed the meeting, Wor. The agenda had figure issues first then crappy pics. I think calling people sensitive was third or fourth. I wasn't paying too much attention since I didn't order the second batch.
