Gotham Cop Joker Preview

The next Joker to be released by Hot Toys (this will be the third) is the MMS DX 01 - The Dark Knight - 1/6th scale The Joker collectible figure from their Movie Masterpiece line. Like I said in the previous post, the Joker is getting a lot more attention than the Batman!

Hot Toys is proud to announce their brand new product line – MMS DX (Movie Masterpiece Deluxe) which features a newly developed technique on the eyes of their collectible - Parallel Eyeball Rolling System (PERS) with Colored Translucent Iris (Enterbay already did something similar with their Bruce Lee). The debut of the line is THE JOKER from the Dark Knight movie which will include 1 x Hot Toys True Type figure with over 35 points of articulation, l fully dressed Joker in Gotham City police suit, hat, Gotham City cop badge and shoes (as seen and worn by the character for assassination scene in the movie) and his M1 Garand Rifle with additional costume: Improved & movie-accurate Joker costume comprised an overcoat, sports coat, vest, shirt, tie, pants, belt, socks and shoes PLUS grenades rig and suspenders. Additional accessories : Five pieces of grenades, knife, pistol and Joker cards with seven Interchangeable posing hands, an interchangeable and new make-up Joker head featuring Parallel Eyeball Rolling System (PERS) and Translucent Iris and a Deluxe figure stand with LED lights.

According to Hot Toys, Parallel Eyeball Rolling System (PERS) is a brand new technique applied to Hot Toys MMSDX figures with special features such as Uniquely designed eyeballs with colored Translucent Iris, Simultaneous Positionable Eyeball Function and works in all direction, to look as natural as human eyes.

Release date: End Q2 – Early Q3, 2009








Expect more great things to come from Hot Toys!!! How can statues with their fixed poses, fragile breakable materials and exorbitant prices even compare with these 1/6 works of art. Hail 1/6! Spread the word :)
