These are probably the best figures I own in my collection! I will never part with them. Now if QS wants to make a Nicholson Joker, I would be definitely down for one.

I've long regretted never buying Jack to go along with my Keaton Bats....but that ship sailed.

Truth be told I'm still not a 1/6 guy. I'd be as happy as a pig in **** with the perfect representation of the pair in 1/12 but NOBODY seems willing to make it happen.

I'm even gonna take a chance on the Beast Kingdom 1/8 scale figures later this year just to get a little closer, even if the head sculpts look super dodgy. I'm not optimistic about them getting corrected either.

Oh, in a perfect world we'd all have what we want. 3 and 3/4 for those guys....6 inch for us "fwoosh" types...any weird in-betweeners at 1/8 or 1/10.....and of course 1/6 scale for the guys here and then the lunatics that just keep going BIGGER with 1/4, 1/3, and 1/1.

A utopia of Keaton and Jacks could await us....if only the license wasn't so damn expensive and the batsuit wasn't so damn hard to replicate.
 
As someone who owns the original, what jumps out at me the most on this knock-off is the super-wide tie that completely obscures his orange shirt. Did they just give up on his tie?

It looks like Mars' tie needs folding, as the original there looks like it forms a concertina pattern.

No doubt the knock off will present a futzing challenge, and the tie may benefit from water treatment and shaping.

One half of the tie partially retained an attempt to shape it, but the folds are opening up:

Yeah, maybe it can be shaped/folded because out of the box it looks like he’s prepped for a plate of ribs.

Wow, never thought this would turn out so well. For the money it's a steal. Is there any way to get hold one of still?
