It looks good, but I need a better look at the face.

The face looks a little off. Like smudged black too much around the eyes. Could always do a custom repaint I guess. I'll probably pass.

I like it but with the problems TRU had with the 2 pack preorders I might just wait.

12" Joker arrived today. I bought two, and was in the process of tearing into one when I noticed that there are variant accessories! One has the knife, and one a Joker card. I repainted the face, and I like it a lot better. This is a nice figure, with overall excellent paint apps (excluding the face, which isn't THAT bad.) Joker is slightly taller than Bats to the top of the head, but Batman's cowl points put him taller overall. Articulation is at the neck, shoulders (ball joint,) elbows, wrists, hips (T-joint,) knees, and possibly the waist, although I can't get it freed up. Enjoy the photos.

Man, why is so hard for Mattel to paint a decent DK Joker face?

I got mine the other day with the knife. I will now have to look for the one with the joker card. Anyone know if these have hit the TRU stores yet?

The more I look at it, the more I like it. Of course it's not up to Hot Toys' level, but then again, it cost 1/5 as much.

I went to my TRU in Lexington,Kentucky yesterday and they had got in a fresh case of 12 inch The Dark Knight figures. So I asked the stockboy to go to the back and he got a case out and opened it and it contained 6 old batmen. If they dont have it at my store by July 1st im ordering online.

I ordered two from TRU.com and got the knife and card one. I still want one to open up so I guess I'll wait for it to hopefully come to the stores. I don't want to pay for shipping again.

Did you pick them up jokermatt? I've updated our Dark Knight Figure Archives with the most current info. Here is a pic of each version, for everyone's reference

Went with the knife version. Didn't want to pay another $35 for a card. I saw them at another TRu today so they should start hitting everywhere now.
