Then there’s of course the big black guy that beats the **** out of Batman.

I like him, but he's no where to be seen other than that fight. Must be an outside hire.

Yeah a mercenary contract or something.

Ray Charles on steroids.

I like how a lot of them had nasty scars. Bob has the knife scar on his face, Lawrence has deformed cauliflower ears, a lot of them have burns, knife scar prosthetics, etc. Like Coco said too, they all sport varying ranks on their shoulders. Lot of character and world building for a bunch of nobody background mooks.

Terence is another one of them.

I always thought the scars on the mouth of the guy next to Lawrence at the entrance to the museum (the one holding the big pink tray of paint) were both odd and fresh-looking. I assumed they were the result of Joker experimenting with acid on him, a la Alicia.

Joker must pay well and have a great benefits package to stick around after that!

 

[Wor-Gar]

I'm guessing Terence is the heavy set guy... but goggling him they show nearly every good labelled as "Terence". Strange they didn't name all their goons, I mean, they are not tricky names. Just for blocking purposes at least.

Based on the maniacally enthusiastic grin he sports in the scene, I assume he had basically been mentally broken by the process.

Certainly Alicia seemed mentally broken after her abuse.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

And the body types of course.

Swappable Joker card ranks would be awesome in the way of curved magnets. Then give them guns, paint brushes, paint cans, knives and of course the boombox.

I’d definitely buy multiples. Not sure how many would buy the whole crew if Mars would do individual goons as they were but I would.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Wow... the entire Goon race. I can't imagine the shelf. Plus Alicia.

I wish someone here had won that helicopter and Axis Chemicals set.

 

[DiFabio]

So . . . did Alicia throw herself out of the window or did Joker kill her?

 

[haytil]

I don't see how magnetic/swappable cards on jackets could be done without being too obvious. If it's not sewn on, it's going to look like crap.

They'd either have to do multiple jackets, or just do one and accept that if you want to do multiple goons, there'd be the minor screen inaccuracy. I'd rather multiple jackets, but that's probably too unrealistic (on an already hypothetical scenario). I'd settle for the inaccuracies on the auxiliary goons.

So . . . did Alicia throw herself out of the window or did Joker kill her?

I feel like Joker wouldn't trash his own "work of art." And his sadism was such that he probably got too much joy out of seeing her suffering while alive - death would have been too merciful for him to deliver it. Frankly, driving her to her own suicide would be the icing on the cake for him.

She was dead on the inside, it was only a matter of time before she finished the job on her outside.

 

[Captain Clown]

I don’t think he’d lie about it, but I feel like he did kill her. He was gaga for Vicki and didn’t seem to give much of a crap about Alicia anymore.

“You can’t make an omelette without breaking some eggs!”

Ordered Thursday and here today - amazing service Kit!

Figure is great for a guy in a suit. Tailoring is fantastic. Headsculpt is a total let down. Thought the glass was so we could recreate the birthday party speech where he kicks all the guests out. However he looks nothing like Bruce/Batman. Too short and thin, looks like he would be better suited to playing Mr Mom. That is the risk of buying unlicensed figures I guess.

The postal service to Australia (from Kit in HK) must be a lot quicker than to the United States - you ordered yours just few days ago from the cancelled PO.

I still did not receive the figure - had an original PO from 2022 and paid off the balance on Jan. 8th.

 

[sj2106]

Post to the UK very slow as well. Been in transit for ages. Much slower than stuff I got from Kit last year.

Yeah not wrong, but the more I think to this bat-computer, the more I ask to myself if I really need it. I don’t know, out of the batcave context it would appear weird on a shelf and the proto appeared very plasticity. If you add the space required to display it properly…It is almost as long as the HT Batmobile.

And if you look at its structure, don’t know if HT would risk to ship something so fragile with all the screens.
The armory would be something I would consider. It’s so iconic and immediately recognizable IMO.

Was this setup (w/ the Batmobile, Computer, Batman) at Secret Base?

It appears this would all fit comfortably in a DF120 Moducase - have the Batmobile on the bottom and have the Computer elevated on some type of riser. Hypothetically, there would still be enough room for the Vault/Armory.

If Hot Toys does not give us the Computer, hopefully JazzInc. picks up the slack - i believe they made one for the BatFleck version.

 

[Mondragon]

You better believe I'd pick up four of those to build a full goon squad.

I've got a bunch of ninjas to back up my Ra's al Ghul, a bunch of clowns to back up my Ledger Joker, a bunch of SWAT to back up my Gordon, a couple of cops to back up my John Blake, a bunch of honor guards to back up my Police Ledger Joker, and a bunch of penguin commandos to back up my Penguin.

I’d definitely buy multiples. Not sure how many would buy the whole crew if Mars would do individual goons as they were but I would.

Then JazzInc. produce a Goon Car to load them all in.

Very interesting possible backstories here for Alicia's death.

I do feel like Joker enjoyed her suffering and kept her around. I can also see her having that one moment -- an open window, and she considers it -- maybe Joker entered the room and said "Ready for bed, my dear?" -- and that was it -- she ran for the window and jumped.

However it happened, I'm sure Joker just started laughing maniacally at the 'humor' of it.

This is the Jazzinc version in a DF120. No way the batcomputer can fit inside IMO…

Or just above but everything would look crowded.

It is pretty decent but this is unusually quick. It is usually around a 2 week transit for most international from experience

 

[Wor-Gar]

Villains wiki, for what its worth, agrees with Captain Clown:

Later, Joker claims that Alicia committed suicide by throwing herself out of window. However, it is strongly hinted that Joker himself murdered her to make room for Vicki as his new lover.

Wayne just arrived! Not too shabby. Tux looks nice. I think the sculpt is good but the paint apps don’t really help to bring out the likeness. The eyebrows are a bit too thick and something in general just not quite Keaton around the eyes. Still pretty great for the price.
