Heath is definitely in there, particularly from this angle, but low angles and certain 3/4 views, the jaw just seems more like a charicature than Heath.

Uh, neither DVD or Blu-ray will be "on their way out" by December.
I know. But Xbox 360 and PS3 will
I swear there is a new video game platform EVERY year. Thats why I just stopped buying them. Can't ever keep current long enough to enjoy them before they get phased out for the next platform! Good grief!As for that MM figure, its not the best Heath likeness in the world, but for the scale, it is a fairly good one. You just have to take all of the crappy factory paint off to see it.

Saw these over on the SHH boards.
Definately can see Heath in this:
One of the left looks like crap, but the one on the right looks great. Hope you are taking notes Les
I actually like the one on the left for some reason. Looks a bit "crazy". How a loon would put on his makeup
Frankly I'm surprised thats not how it came out from the factory It looks like what a sloppy paintwork on a McFarlane or NECA figure would look like. Its just a bit too blotchy for my tastes. You can clearly see it was painted to look sloppy and not a result of physical activity like it should be.

Exactly what I was thinking. It looks slopped on, not worn away or smudged.

Digging my way out!
Actually, those do look kinda cool. Somehow.....I like that smeared one. He looks like in the beatup police station scenes...
Here is a better look at my hurried first attempt (at left)...
(not Buttmunch's, but it will be done soon)

Is that Buttmunch's on the right? 
But even your "hurried" one looks 100x better than the factory paint. I can't wait to see what you do when you "take your time."

"And here we GO!" face?
At least it doesn't have that stray red line.

That was a good pick! Lucky!
Not mine. Just found the pic. They think is a "variant!"
Its just a decently painted on.

It does look really good, though. Has forehead lines, too. Mine doesn't.

I can't wait to see what Les does with Buttmunch's Joker... And I am really thinking I might just buy up a few, paint them and put them up for auction.

Finally found poster at Blockbuster today, while looking at Indy stuff. Didn't see any other Joker or TDK ones. The search continues...
Really want this one -

Are those the framed painting-like posters they have? Or just a regular poster? I saw an Iron Man on recently and I've been saving up a bunch of gift cards to get a Dark Knight one.
And I've seen that HA! one at FYE for $8.

Is that an offical poster? I really like it and have seen a few on eBay.

Don't know if this was already posted. We've seen an article like this before.

Stuff on the figures at the bottom.

Why not take them to market? The Joker character has been around long before Ledger, and will still be here long after we're all dead.
Walking on egg shells because an actor died is the silliest thing I've heard of since airbrushing the World Trade Center out of Spider-Man posters.
Because being a movie campaign, people are of the mindset that if they're going to put Joker on products, it's going to capture Heath's representation, they're not even thinking of just using a generic Joker image.
I was delighted when I read this, it's nice to know that some companies actually put decency and respect ahead of the almighty dollar. Sure some of the products would sell, but not cashing in on the "hype" of someone's tragic death is the honorable thing to do and I'm glad they're stepping that up. Some may argue that heavily saturating trailers with Joker is doing just that, but in that instance, I feel it is a tribute to Heath's final great performance. TDK isn't all Joker, but the Joker is all Heath, RIP
