Hot Toys has officially unveiled its new sixth scale Joker figure which is inspired by the iconic appearance of the Clown Prince of Crime in the 1988 graphic novel Batman: The Killing Joke. The collectible is available to pre-order now, priced at $270; take a look here…
Alan Moore and Brian Bolland’s Batman: The Killing Joke stands as one of the most iconic and unsettling graphic novels in Batman history. With its exploration of the Joker’s origin and twisted philosophy, the story asks a chilling question: Can a single bad day push someone into madness? The Joker stages a horrific carnival as a stage for his dark experiment, kidnapping Commissioner Gordon and brutally testing his sanity. These themes of psychological horror and moral ambiguity have cemented The Killing Joke as the definitive Joker tale.
Hot Toys is proud to present the 1/6th scale The Joker Collectible Figure, inspired by the comic Batman: The Killing Joke. The figure includes two newly developed head sculpts equipped with rolling eyeballs, detailed wrinkles, make-up, and meticulously sculpted curly green hair that completes the haunting visage. One head sculpt features an open-mouth grinning expression, with a magnetically attachable tongue; the other has a squinting and grinning expression, with a removable hat that is interchangeable with both head sculpts. The Joker is dressed in his comic-accurate attire, coming with a wire-embedded purple coat and jacket over a yellow waistcoat, black shirt, green ribbon, black belt, and purple pants paired with black shoes. Coming with eight interchangeable gloved hands, collectors are able to pose him with his iconic expressive poses. True to the original panels, his weapons come with a small knife and a pistol that shoots a “Click Click Click” flag. Also included are a camera, a cane, and a Joker card. Completing the setup is a backdrop featuring the comic cover art of Batman: The Killing Joke, which is mountable to the specially designed figure stand.
With dual head sculpts, authentic costume detail, and faithful accessories, this figure captures Joker’s twisted elegance. Don’t miss this masterpiece for fans and collectors who seek Gotham’s darkest laugh.
