Batman Dark Knight - The Joker 1:6 Scale Review

I just received this figure yesterday after waiting nearly six months for it to be imported by DC Direct stateside. I could've went the the eBay route and imported it earlier from Asia (namely the figure's origin territory of Hong Kong)but the shipping charges and the going rate would have put the price well over $230. So I waited patiently and was rewarded.

The figure comes in a four panel, velcro enclosed box with a heavy-duty matte slipcover. Every panel shows a unique pose of the figure or character, and is very easy to open. The figure is held down by six easy to remove twist ties. It comes with two extra hands for holding items, including a gun (not included, a set of joker playing cards (each with a unique picture) and jokerized $1 bills where the original Geaorge W's face has been made to look like the joker. He also has a very nice retractable knife.

Now, as for the figure itslef, you expect quite a bit for the almost $200 the figure costs. And you definitely get it. Let me just say first off that the figure looks much better in person than it does in photos. This is due to how light reacts to the exauisite paint job of the headsculpt and every detail in his clothing. While the headsculpt isn't the best representation of Heath Ledger, it looks absolutely fantastic on this figure. There is a slight "sheen" that makes the head look like it is perspiring, like what you saw in the film. The fact that it is made of polystone resin only adds to the naturalness of the detailing.

The real reason to buy this Hot Toys version over the Medicom or DC Direct version is the amount of detail given to the clothing. Wearing no less than four layers (the purple overcoat, grey sportcoat, green vest, and the hexagonal shirt) everything fits perfectly and lays very well. There is no bulking even when the figure is posed, unlike with the DC Direct version. The inside of the overcoat has a red lining, which makes the outfit pop, and his removable chain is fantastic. There are buttons where there should be buttons, and the much maligned velcro on the green vest seems to have been remedied in this newest version. And this is the only Joker you will see with the screen accurate colored socks.

The only negative of the figure is due to Hot Toy's truetype figure's design. While it is the best body available for posing and fit (outside of Takara's bodies) they just don't seem to stand very well, and a slight knock of a cabilet could make them fall. Luckily the stand that's included is very unobtrusive and keeps the figure upright without worry. Again, this is the only nitpick I can find and it's not a real problem.

Overall this figure is definitley worth the investment, and if you are a fan of the character or movie, you'd do well to have it on display. Please note that the Bank Robber headsculpt will fit on this body, so you can pick that head up on eBay if you desire.
