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

[Sixth Scale Man]

Love it! Really great work by Mars Toys.
View attachment 626586

This looks like such a fun figure. Really looking forward to starting a 66 Batman collection. I've certainly come to appreciate the show more over the years.

A Bookworm would be great for other possible Roddy McDowall customs too.

 

[Wor-Gar]

If they did the MAIN costumed characters:

Batman
Robin
Batgirl
Joker
Penguin
Riddler
Catwoman
Mr. Freeze

That's 8 already.

Gordon
Chief O'Hara
Alfred

That's 11 figures... before any other villains on your shelf.

If you were to get them all, you're at $2,200+ at the very least.

Then start adding variants...

Barbara Gordon
Bruce Wayne
Dick Grayson

Well glad there will be a 2nd release in April !

Did everyone get the other two version of the 66 Joker?

 

[Wor-Gar]

Think Mars will do Penguin as Commodore Schmidlapp?

Random question, but did West ever remove the cowl on screen while in the batsuit? I was just thinking that might be a cool display option, but then realized I couldn't remember him ever doing it.

I don't think he did. Only in the famous promo, which you could recreate, but looks a little odd - egghead,

Trying to remember if he removed his pink one in the Contaminated Cowl, but don't think he did in that episode either.

I was only planning on getting version A, but considering how great it turned out and what Mars has planned I'm getting all 3 just to show my support to them.

 

[Wor-Gar]

If I get Joker, then I'm in for Penguin, Riddler, Catwoman, Freeze instantly... so there's no way I can also do variants.

 

[Mike86]

My guess is they’ll do Mr. Freeze. He’s one of the iconic Batman Rogues. I don’t necessarily think of his episodes but it doesn’t mean he’s not a memorable character.

 

[karamazov80]

Not sure if I want to go down the slippery slope of getting the other villains, but would be hard to pass up Riddler, Penguin, and Catwoman. I had a soft spot for Bookworm, but. . .not gonna do it. Wouldn't be prudent.

I’ve been exposed. Must self destruct

 

[lordnastrond]

Yeah, personally I'm only a lock-in for Joker, Riddler, Penguin & Catwoman.
Plus "Saturn Toys" Batman & Robin 2 pack.
Thats more than enough for me - and I feel giddy thinking about what an awesome and colourful shelf it will make!

 

[DazzlerFan]

I had passed on this initially, but after seeing the pics I’m totally in. Now to wait for April.

As for other figures from the series, I’ll now pick up the Penguin and if they make her Batgirl (which I hope has a Barbara Gordon headsculpt).

My obscure list wants are Alfred and either Mad Hatter or Clock King.

 

[D'oh!]

They should go WAY deep and give us the Lyle Waggoner version at some point:

One more thing before bed:
Regarding mars toys “Prank Villain”, first batch will be arriving end of this week
We will send invoices in batches, assume all preorders will be shipped with March
Don’t worry if you missed it, we may have available units for sale, I also discussed with Mars toys to run a new batch, it is very positive

 

[GhostBeard]

SO gratifying to see the Romero Joker go over like gangbusters! Happy that Mars grabbed the money HT left on the table.

 

[HAL9000.]

To state the obvious: HT really dropped the ball not pushing forward with their prototype years ago.

Glad they didn't though because I prefer these sculpts, and there's no way HT would have included three.

 

[sj2106]

Also glad HT didn't passed on this line. With Mars Toys we get more sculpts, much lower price and no two year wait times.

You won't have any problems getting your money back on this one (and then some), especially if that third head stays exclusive to PO's which it should if I read the instructions correctly. It all depends of coarse on supply and demand but at this price point it's really a no brainer taking that chance. I mean, that exclusive head is pretty freaking cool and I would be bummed not to have it.

TL;DR
What I am trying to say is it's possible this figure could pay for a large portion of your Ledger Joker should you decide to sell it.

Well, now that Mars Toys may be doing a second batch, I doubt I would get as much but you make a valid point nonetheless

With that said, I think I would like to see the figure in hand before making a decision. And, I can always sell it later regardless of how much I get back. I never collect these as an investment. It would be more of a sting if this was at HT prices, that’s for sure.
