The Joker's unique weapons, befitting his artistic persona, are exquisitely detailed. Numerous memorable joke items from the film are also included. With a variety of interchangeable hand parts, you can recreate every pose of the Joker gleefully committing his evil deeds. The base boasts a luxurious design befitting a DX (deluxe) figure, complete with a built-in light-up function. This item perfectly recreates the striking aura emanating from Jack Nicholson's distinctive portrayal of the cunning Joker.
