The actual written response isn't too promising though. Is Mars just jesting someone who posted their render on Mars thread?

 

[pug205]

Mars are the ones who posted the render so it seems legit so far. Think the 2040 bit is them having fun with others comments about their turnarounds

 

[dukefett]

Woohoo!

 

[Wor-Gar]

A real Bob the Goon... now that would be something. I couldn't pass that up.

I passed on Keaton Wayne, I passed on Alfred, I'll pass on Vicki Vale... but I'd be in for Bob.

Batman, Joker and Bob would make an excellent '89 shelf. And Bob goes with just about every Joker look we have.

 

[pug205]

I have now bought all Mars 89 figures and this will be an instant PO for me. Will now have someone to pair with Mob Joker.

I would dare say my 89 collection would be finished with Bob.

Batman
Bruce Wayne
Alfred
Joker Finale
Joker Mob Boss
Joker Museum
Joker Mime

Is that the complete set of HT/Mars Batman '89 figures this far?

Yep, unless you want to define the two museum versions as “Partyman” and “Melty” Jokers.

 

[Wor-Gar]

That's true.

Although I think Mars meant for the two painted Nicholson heads to work for Mob Boss, and just the one melty face for "Partyman".

I wonder if Mars is seriously considering the triple-dip with a green-shirt "Vicki's Apartment" Joker?

Woaaaaaah! I had to do a double take when I saw this thread title. Can’t wait.

I know it’s greedy, but I hope they do Lawrence too - or include a Lawrence head and boombox to kitbash him with their “American Badass” body type.

Again, this will be a day 1 preorder for me. So excited to see when this releases and hopefully way sooner than 2040.
If multiple heads are made available, I may purchase at least two of these figures.

Must come with “gun”.

 

[Mr. Awesome]

Tempting. Very tempting. Gonna think about this.

Ooo! Not a bad idea. Include a couple of different goon heads and you could get a decent Joker gang out of one figure. Lawrence the boombox guy would be the next most recognizable goon to include and make for a decent accessory.

No way! Wow maybe Mars Toys watching the forum this is awesome. Yes Mars Yes!

It would be better to get a 2-pack, maybe Bob and Lawrence. Putting a Lawrence headsculpt on a Bob body would look odd, plus you have to constantly choose which goon you want displayed because there's only one body. That's the problem I'm having with the Mobster Joker. They include the melting facepaint head sculpt so now I have to find a Laughing Man figure to put that head on. I already have the original DX08 with the regular Joker head but I'd rather keep that head on there.

This is one of those figures I am unreasonably excited for while simultaneously thinking I must be insane to even consider getting it.
