Movie Masters Joker

Greetings heroes/citizens, okay it’s been a while since I wrote a reviews on this blog. Today I spent some time playing the Movie Masters Joker, by Mattel. It’s going to be a brief writing of this action figure. This is a franchise of The Dark Knight movie, and Joker was played by the late Heath Ledger.Retail price for this action figures is $20 you can still get it here if you’re looking for it.

Packaging; just a regular carded packaging. Joker was laid on a plastic tray. In this position he doesn’t look so appealing to me at first. This is not a BIB friendly toys, because you have to rip off the backing cardboard to take out the action figure inside. I like the bubble plastic cover’s design, it made the action figure looks expensive.A couple of rubber band used to tie the figure in place.

Design/sculpt;at first I thought this is just another way of big toys company to harvest more money from parents that will buy this for their kids, but I was wrong. The sculpts and detailing for this action figure is quite impressive. Okay, it might be nothing compared to Hot Toys Joker but for a 5 inch figure it does have Heath Ledger’s looks. Mattel is catching up on the sculpting, if compared to Hasbro’s toys. His pants looks like it a real thing, but again in 5 inch scale, (please don’t compare it to Hot Toys).The coat he’s wearing was made of PVC/rubber, it can be removed and this is good for customizers and now for the bad thing. The only thing I don’t like about this Joker is his neck it’s to big

Articulations; it’s not the best but also not the worst. It’s fun to play and almost can do any post that I like.

Colors; the color is not bad, in fact it’s very detail especially the pants. It’s not just a plain purple, but if you look closely you can the stripes. They can do better for the face, I think it need more wash, for the white.

Accessories; not much just a pocket knife, an evidence plastic bag and also the Joker’s card as the evidence. At least the evidence make sense unlike the Batman which you will get a ridiculous size of Batman’s mask, it can’t be use with 1/6 figures so I think it’s a garbage.
