Dark Knight - Joker 2.0 [With Bonus Accessory]

[Product Introduction] Hot Toys' top-of-the-line "DX (Deluxe)" series now includes an exclusive item from Hot Toys' Tokyo flagship store, "Toy Sapiens." From the movie series "The Dark Knight," the Joker (2.0 version) [with bonus accessories], which comes with a clown mask and detonator switch as bonus accessories, will be released in a limited edition of 500 units (domestic distribution number). Pre-orders will begin on Saturday, July 28th, 2012 at 11:00 AM on the "Toy Sapiens" online site www.toysapiens.jp! In Gotham City, where organized crime runs rampant, the Dark Knight Batman, along with Lieutenant Gordon and the newly appointed District Attorney Harvey Dent, works to eradicate the mafia by cracking down on money laundering and cutting off their funding sources. Suddenly, the Joker, the most dangerous man, appears before the vengeful mafia bosses and proposes to kill Batman, bringing terror and chaos to Gotham. Standing approximately 30 centimeters tall and featuring over 35 points of articulation, this figure successfully captures the insane and menacing presence of the Joker. Two newly sculpted heads are included, both with Heath Ledger's likeness rights cleared. The first head captures a sinister expression with a PERS (Performance Ear Reflex) eyeball articulation system that allows for expressive eye movements. The second head features a Joker-esque expression that seems to mock everything. Both heads are hand-painted to recreate the dirty makeup, hairstyle, wrinkles, and skin texture. The costume, one of the Joker's defining features, was created by KATO, a leading costume artist from Hong Kong. The meticulous attention to detail, from the silhouette to the texture of the materials, is a highlight. Weapons include the iconic machine gun, as well as a shotgun, pistol, and three types of knives, and even a hidden knife in the sole of the shoe. As luxurious accessories, a desk (with a stand light) and chair from the police interrogation room, and handcuffs are also included. This figure recreates that iconic interrogation scene where the Joker enjoys even the most dire situation as if it were a game. Bonus accessories included only with this item are the clown mask worn by Grumpy, the henchman tricked by the Joker into being hit by a bus during the bank robbery, and the detonator switch for the explosives planted on the ferry. In addition, numerous other accessories are included, such as the Joker's signature playing cards, the pencil he used for his magic tricks with the mafia, and 12 interchangeable hand parts, allowing you to recreate many of the film's most memorable scenes. The base features a light-up function befitting a deluxe edition. Heath Ledger's Joker is a traditional character that will forever inspire new fans. Get your hands on this ultimate masterpiece, a quintessential "Dark Knight" creation from Hot Toys, a tribute to Heath Ledger's love and respect for him! 【Product Specifications】 Manufacturer: Hot Toys Series Number: DX#11b Scale: 1/6 scale Size: Approximately 30 cm tall Weight: Approximately 1.35 kg (figure only), approximately 3 kg (including packaging) Articulation Points: 35 Packaging: Flip-top closed box Package Size: Approximately W30.5 × H36.5 × D16.5 (cm) Production Information: Limited to 500 units for domestic distribution Distribution Method: Toy Sapiens exclusive Product Type: High-end 1/6 scale articulated figure Accessories (Weapons): Machine gun, shotgun, pistol, knife (x3) Accessories (Accessories): Interchangeable head parts, interrogation room desk set (with stand light), interchangeable hand parts (x12), handcuffs, pencil, playing cards (joker), stack of bills, backboard, base (with light-up function), bonus accessories: Grumpy's clown mask, detonator switch Special Features: Light-up function, movable eyeball system (PERS) Manufacturer/Distributor: Hot Toys Japan Co., Ltd.
