I received my bust earlier this week and love it! The sculpt and paint job are outstanding!

Very nice, also the bust head really looks like Ledger at the end of your video

I don 't get the hype around them, they are pretty statues but they seem to always mess up the likeness... For a 2k piece it's pretty disappointing.Alternatively this $3k piece looks fabulous lol
The paint on the Prime One could be improved but at least the likeness and tailoring is on point. JND badly botched both of these as confirmed in the pics below.

Who did you get to paint it?
Stunning in every way. Whoever did the repaint did a phenomenal job. I'm still waiting on the statue and bust. I didn't PO directly from Prime 1 so I have no idea when I'll get mine.
From a mutual friend of mine. His name is Al Iglesias. You can find him on Facebook and Instagram
Thank you so much! Congrats on getting both, hopefully you'll get yours soon. The statue and the bust are amazing, you'll be pleased with either

Got my bust with my rewards points and I don’t regret it. Not as beautiful as the prototype, but the likeness and quality is there. A touch up of more paint details on the face, would be good enough. It looks too “clean”.

I know we say this every time a p1 proto is announced but given the base with all the accessories, this has potential for being the ultimate version of Ledger Joker. However, the paint will probably be rubbish again
I really like the half makeup look, it's a nice tribute to the actor

Heath Two-Face Joker is not my type of villain, I’m happy with mine. A new painted suit would have been nice for that new version.

I honestly thought this was a joke at first lol. Prime 1 love to re-release stuff (they did it with Alien recently which really annoyed a lot of people). I don't know why, but the likeness to me looks worse with the half make-up look.
Either way, I don't see this selling well at all. I don't have this statue, but if I did, I would prefer the full make-up sculpt to this. Could be nice as a standalone piece though, as you said, a tribute to Heath.

I think it looks great in the promo pics, I'd probably pick up the bust if I thought the paint would really look like that lol
The other issue is the fact they should have announced all the options from the start, without forcing customers to buy all the add ons, then announcing another one

Hi! I have just received the bust and I really like it but I prefer the smiling head on the statue. Maybe because I already got used to it. But I don’t know. Bust likeness is very good from both sides but I feel smiling likeness is better from every angle.
The bad about keeping the bust with the bust head is you have to display it in a high shelf if you want to see the face properly.
Anyway it is a very nice bust/head… that should have been sold along with the statue as a second head
