Only difference I see is the lighting, it's better in the new photos.

Yeah they just seem alot clearer because they arent as dimly lit. Looking good though, not sure about the mouth pout, i like the BR version better. Is it just me, or do the eyes look brown now?
looking at the pictures again i would have to agree.
I can't really spot the color on them, but they should be brown.
Because a strong light is hitting his face from below rather than above and to the side like the older pics. Most times, lighting from below is not flattering to any subject, sometimes it can work though, not in this case.

That new shot looks sick! It is just the lighting but wow does light ever make a mountain of difference.

Are you guys sure only difference is the lighting? Look at the black paint drips around the eyes, they don't match the older photo. And there looks to be more paint apps on the forehead and right below the lips. Lighting doesn't do that.

I don't see anything going on with the paint that photography can't account for.

Probably. Are there any more close-ups of the display figure under the old lighting?

The new pics have the cop Joker on his own stand. I hope they include an extra stand for him.

I saw and hope for the same..now all they need to do is put in a extra body
Not really. It would bump the cost up some and the cop head wouldn't be as useful as the standard make-up head to have the PERS system. He pretty much just looked straight ahead when in the cop uniform.

sorry, I guess I ask for to much, it's already about 190, and isn't the main new feature of the DX line the eyes? this isn't about what was in the movie but principle for me. you only get one of the two heads to feature the PERS? I wonder if this is something we can come to expect from hot toys, two head sculpts with only one of them featuring the eye system. probably only with characters that wear make up or masks is when we will get two heads. I wonder about the DX batman, I'm sure we'll get two heads, do you think only one of them will get the eye treatment?

Batman will probably come with another Bruce head. So I would bet the Batman head would get the PERS and not Bruce.
We still don't know much about the PERS system to begin with. Plus we don't know how well they will work in person. The PERS may suck and the eyes don't stay put and basically ruin the make-up head Joker. But then again, it may just be wonderful. It realy is too early to tell and it sad really that everyone expectes the PERS to be the new standard overnight.

For people looking for a wire, look at the first of the new batch of pics. The coat is wide open and his left hand is clearly not holding it.

The announcement of the new line didn't say anything about PERS being standard or a specific feature exclusive to the DX line. jnmx2000 said:
You might not even get that. You might just get 1 head with no moveable eyes. Or 2 heads with no moveable eyes. Certain characters/sculpt don't need them and most people would rather not pay extra for something they'll never use.

Doubt it. Unless HT can figure out how to implement PERS into a smooth surface head. Joker has a lot of hair in the back, so the opening to move the eyes isn't as obvious with all the hair and opening blending in. But with a character who's bald, has very short hair or wearing a mask (like the TDK Cowl) it will be pretty hard to blend in that opening without it being apparent. I've seen one Batman figure with moveable eyes (someone modded their Takara Batman) and I'm pretty sure he has to pop the head on and off everytime he wants to adjust the eyes which is pretty inconvienant imo. So we'll see.
