The Joker head sculpt isn’t 1k worth.

1300 bucks for this product...I'm probably pulling a keco and eating my deposit

Maybe wait till people make in-hand reviews. The hair of the Hot Toys artisan Joker, also looked terrible in the official promo pics, but they fixed that. And i have already seen asian KZbinrs who unboxed the red suit joker, and it looked much, much better in their videos, than in the InArt videos.

Excellent live as always. There was only one detail that I didn't like. How is it possible that no one commented anything about "the offspring" in the leaked list of hot toys. That figure would be huge, terrifying, grotesque... and absolutely incredible! It was one of the most terrifying surprises from Alien Romulus. It would be great to have it in figure form.

I thought you were referring to the band and I was like “he’s not that ugly 😂”

Hey Will, quick question: Did you ever get your Deadpool Hot Toys yet? Mine still hasn't even shipped yet or made it to Sideshow. Sorry if you answered this already during a video or live stream.

7:10 I did not spot the long neck until you mentioned it. I have on pre_order with SUGO the InArt - Joker (JOAQUIN PHOENIX) Deluxe (2 pack). I am not seeing Joaquin Phoenix, i am worried! Lighting might be playing a part in downgrading the figure? ..maybe i should have waited and gone with the Hot Toys JOKER ^_^

Regardless that Quantum Mania how did ups and downs I was looking forward to getting this Ant-Man because this is the first one for me and it doesn't matter if they updated the head sculpt I'm barely going to use that anyway I might turn it into a Baskin-Robbins Scott Lang

I don't think that Inart's recent releases are "much better" than their HL Joker. The only area in which they are, objectively, (on the portrait) better is in the eyes department, where they now look more life-like and are seated in the sockets better. As someone who owns the rooted Inart Joker and the Hot Toys artisan Joker, and sculpted version, I think the Artisan looks different, not better (aside from the eyes). Hot Toys went for the full on Joker look, where he's caked in makeup, looks messy, and is more menacing looking, and where you see more of the Joker than you do Heath - just like how he appeared in the mob scene. Whereas Inart went for a more balanced, tidy look, where you can see more of Heath than you do the Joker. They truly compliment one another, and are fantastic. It'll be very interesting to see how the JND compares.

[@dangiambrone7350]

I say this all the time: for some reason or another, Inart's headsculpts look nowhere near as good in media as they do in hand. Paint apps appear soft, as do scupted details, facial features inaccurate etc. It's extremely frustrating because when you have them in hand they don't look like toys, or caricatures, they resemble real people. Like Will said, lighting is a large factor, as are the camera angles and lenses, but it seems like there is something else going on. Aragorn, Superman, and especially their Heath Ledger all come in for a lot of stick, but in reality they are top tier pieces, amongst the best I have ever seen and by quite a margin.

Hey will, my favorite cookie is an Oreo dipped in white chocolate. You can only get them during the holiday season. Also, did you know that Canadians have different girl guide cookies than Americans do? There's much less variety in Canada. Ask Ben Thomas.

I believe the negative effects from the terrible sequel to JOKER will really hurt InArt 4 pack…these figures really look good but the movie burned me so bad 😂😂😂

[@SmootchieWallace-vl7wd]

Will I have to disagree. There's a pretty big difference in the 2 sculpt photos. The original photo has better hair, a slightly different mouth which makes a big difference and the skin has ridges, lines, and pacthes while the nee photo doesn't have almost any of that same detail in the og photo. Could just be the angle and lighting which is fair but the photos look different for sure. May not be because of a downgrade but my jaw dropped in disappointment when I saw photos on rileys channel

[@stryker-4733]

Let's face it DC has always been a fort classes and when it comes to Hot Toys because Star Wars and Marvel has always been Center Stage if they're doing anything with DC is a Batman or Superman figure for the majority cuz I think what James Gunn is doing that might end up being a change definitely we're going to get a sixth scale figure of Superman perhaps even Artisan because that will not figure gives kind of an example of the hairstyle of Superman so it can be done all I'm saying is whether it's Artisan or regular they have to add krypto

[@ddot196]

Wake me up when Inart starts selling through sideshow or something for the US then I’ll consider picking them up.

34:33 The Anne Hathaway 1/6 portrait on Catwoman destroys Hot Toys and InArt (work in progress) portraits. The issue i have with the JND Catwoman is that her bust sits too low. JND should fix that.
