Heath Ledger’s version of the Joker in The Dark Knight is a remarkable performance that still gets recognized today as one of the best depiction of the character outside of the DC comic book. Despite his limited screen time, the Joker steals the show by his menacing presence over the movie. He’s the agent of chaos, the unstoppable force to Batman’s immovable object.
Throughout the years of figure creations, Hot Toys has been constantly pursuing and offering the highest quality standards, made possible by the talents of our skillful craftsman. Now, we are revisiting a legendary character portrayed by Heath Ledger by presenting The Joker in 1/6th scale collectible figure that captured every chilling details with our advanced crafting techniques.
This time we have worked closely with Derek Kwok (Hong Kong Film Director) for a custom-tailored costume based on The Joker’s signature purple coat outfit in Nolan’s The Dark Knight. From the choice of material to the cuts and layer arrangements, Derek showed his professionalism and expressed great passion, combining Hot Toys’ workmanship to give the real fabric costume the highest level of screen accuracy.
Coming from the DX series, the latest one-sixth Joker figure is notably crafted based on Heath Ledger’s portrayal of The Joker in the movie. Features a newly developed head sculpt with separate eyeball rolling system, iconic make-up accented by the red grin, two styles of expressions including a gesturing tongue, and detailed green coiffed hair sculpture with the curls hanging within the strands.
The Joker’s real fabric costume including his purple topcoat, blazer, vest, dress shirt, pants, socks, are all recreated with fine texture and accurate patterns. Most importantly, we have introduced a form fitting body unique to this figure, reflecting his actual physique yet giving great articulations under a layered costume.
His chaotic look completed with detailed weapons and accessories such as guns, grenades, knives, playing cards, bank note and a LED lighted diorama base with the famous bat symbol. It’s a base with two lighting modes for alternate display.
