Tuxedo-Clad Joker Gets His Own Figure Courtesy of Hot Toys

Tuxedo-Clad Joker Gets His Own Figure Courtesy of Hot Toys

Sure, the reviews might be mixed on “Suicide Squad,” but one thing we can all agree on is how amazingly detailed this new figure is based on Jared Leto’s Joker in the film, courtesy of Hot Toys (via Facebook). The company’s newest DC Comics-based product has the Joker donning his finest threads: A black tuxedo, white bow-tie, purple cane and a gold-plated machine gun.

The Hong Kong-based Hot Toys has been transitioning to figures based off media properties over the last few years. Each character is rendered in 1/6th scale, and packaged with accessories and character stand with a themed backdrop. Such is the case with its new tuxedo-clad Joker figure.

This is not Hot Toys’ first rendition of the Joker, as there are versions ranging from the Batman ’66 take, to figures not seen in the actual films — including figures that were sculpted in the “spirit of the movie.” The latest newest version captures Leto’s looks with a newly painted head-sculpt, featuring a more serious “smile.”

The black tuxedo look is a now-classic costume for the character — one that “traces its origins back to the comics.” According to Hot Toys, the finely-tailored costume is an ode the to the “flamboyant makeup and wardrobe that certainly makes (Leto’s) ballsy performance even more fun and memorable.” A specially designed “Suicide Squad”-themed stand and backdrop are also included with purchase.
