How accurate can an action figure’s likeness get to its human counterpart before it crosses over into being downright creepy?
Hot Toys may have found the answer with their latest “cop disguise” variant DARK KNIGHT Joker, the upcoming debut of their high-end MMSDX figure series that features a rather chilling resemblance to late star Heath Ledger (made all the more unnerving by the “Parallel Eyeball Rolling System”).
Hot Toys is a Hong Kong production house known for detailed figures from popular genre movies (TERMINATOR, ALIENS, PREDATOR). This isn’t the first Joker figure from them, (their Bank Robber version from last summer was a hot item) but this new model seems almost disturbingly similar to the real thing. Check out more details HERE and keep an eye on domestic resellers (like Sideshow) to try and grab one.
