Hot Toy DX08 - BATMAN - The Joker (Jack Nicholson) - Specs & Pics

[a-dev]

I was gonna put down a flex PO on this guy but have decided to wait and see for any updates/changes in the release date. Im so torn wether or not to get Batman as well.

I think it'd be madness not to get Batman. Even considering possible QC issues with rubber suits etc, if I was going to turn down Batman on those grounds I wouldn't bother getting the Joker either.

Batman on his own - deffo.
Joker on his own - meh. Why?

 

[S. Griffin]

Well, I had considered getting just the Joker because I'm teh huge Joker fan, but once I saw the Batman figure I needed him, too.

I am not a comic book guy. My 17 years of collecting action figure contains nothing from DC, Marvel etc.

I am very interested in this Joker and Batman but am very afraid. In the similar words of Jerry Seinfeld this is what would change if I make the purchase....

“Don't you know what it means to become comic guy? It changes
everything. I'd have to dress different. I'd have to act different. I'd have to grow a beard and get all kinds of superman, green lantern t -shirts and I'd need to know how to play roll playing games.

I would have to buy posters!!! And have a collection of superhero statues.

I'd have to get new friends. I'd have to get comic friends...."

Joker on his own= Win
But you do have a point with Batman. The price will inevitebly go up in the aftermarket. So thats $500 I need.

Oh sh$t....

 

[a-dev]

Not saying he isn't a good enough figure to own without Batman, its going to be an amazing figure. I just wouldn't care enough to own the character without also owning Batman.

 

[S. Griffin]

Well, dass you.

This figure is pure win, but along side Batman, it's 100 times pure win.

SOME PICS OF the joker that were on the plastic enemy's site..

 

[S. Griffin]

I'd love to see new ones.

 

[Maglor]

Don't remember seeing the one in just the vest (jacket off).

Ya'll think he's wearing a fat suit?

 

[vodoun]

5th picture, middle pose. \o/

 

[Cocoboloboy]

Doesn't look like he's wearing a fatsuit in that. In fact I don't really like that pic. Makes his hand look too fat, his arms very thin and the vest a bit cheap and small.

 

[Maglor]

Just poor futzing I think.

You don't think he looks a little thick around the middle there?

 

[Cocoboloboy]

Almost looks like his shirt is poofed out a bit but then I look at his waist line and he slims back down.

 

[S. Griffin]

Well, I hope they made a fat suit for the figure since those pics were taken. Jack wasn't Marlon Brando or anything, but he wasn't as thin as that proto, either.
