the best post ever made..Did MJ choi gain permission to use Heath Ledger's likeness when he started selling a sculpt of him?
I'm pretty sure that the representation of The Joker in The a Dark Knight is copyrighted by Warner Bros / DC / Syncopy whoever the owners of the film are.
Hot Toys have to pay for the license to an actor's likeness. Ergo, MJ Choi is a thief and has made monney illegally therefore the re casters (also thieves) shouldn't feel bad stealing from him.
Either way, I couldn't care less because all the Hot Toys' head sculpts of The Joker are terrible so I'm thankful I can actually buy one that is half decent. That being said, the MJ Choi sculpt was wrong with regards to the scars and I had to resculpt them.
People moaning about head sculpts need to chill out.
This hobby is pathetic but I love having figures from my favourite films so...meh.
Hypocrite and proud.
Can someone post their figure built from Onesixthkit? I am from the U.S., where do they ship from?

Finally got all the pieces to kitbash this guy. Even tho he's a knockoff, he's still dope to me.
Here's mine, it's a DX11 resculpt. I have recast the face and started working on it, then I'll sculpt some hair but most will be rooted (I use wool). I have also started a new thread where I post more pics every time I work on it. I'll also make a new jacket and coat, I have a tailor working for me.
Thank you! Yes I will make casts. I'm going to make a no make up version as well, it will be the same sculpt with a different hair style (and paint, obviously).That's looking great! Let us know if you make casts.
Hey this looks really good, is the entire figure from onesixthkit and do you have any HT jokers to compare it to quality wise?
Nice weathering Supreme_Snake, I weathered my coat a while back and I also weathered his cuffs and some little random bits on his coat also. And that is looking like a nice Joker head sculpt Kodaiv.
So I have had the DX11 since release and the only thing I did to him way back when was to buy a spare coat and weather it. About a year back I bought three of those KO Joker heads from eBay (I like the stock heads from the DX11 but the custom ones are better IMO) and I thought that was my Joker DX11 finished....that was until I seen what Jokes & Bats did to his custom head sculpt and I knew I had to get one.
I want to say a big thanks to Jokes & Bats for his hard work and to honestly say that I now have a mini Ledger Joker in my collection thanks to his wonderful work on the head sculpt. I only needed to gel the hair. Jokes and Bats painted head sculpt has taken my DX11 to another level I feel.
Some pics of my hopefully fully finished DX11 -
anyone had any experience with these heads?
