Batman Arkham City Play Arts Kai Joker Action Figure

Amazing Joker figure
I'm really impressed with this figure. Far more so than the Arkham Asylum version. PAK have improved nearly everything with this Joker, and it really shows. From the articulation to the paint apps and sculpt, this figure has a ton of really awesome features.The paint job on this figure is immaculate. The smallest of details aren't left out. From the pleats on his suit to the different color tones on his shoes, let alone the amazing paint job on both heads that come with this figure, there's a ton of detail here. The paint on this figure really accentuates the amazing sculpt work, and all in all, it's very impressive looking. It's a wonderful portrayal of the character, and has much more of the Joker's likeness from the game than the Arkham Asylum PAK figure did.The articulation on this figure is awesome, to be sure, and thanks to this (along with the awesome paint job and sculpt) the figure displays wonderfully. There are a ton of great poses you can get Joker in, and the articulation here is as detailed as anything else on the figure. The neck can move separately and independent from the head, both the arms and legs have an impressive range of motion, and the ab-crunch and torso rocker all work wonderfully. Even the tails of his coat are able to flare out for more dynamic poses. It's very, very well done, but that's not to say this figure doesn't have its faults.My main gripe with this Joker is with his feet articulation. His pants hinder this a lot, and you won't get the range of motion you would with the Arkham City Batman's feet since Joker's pants aren't made from the same plastic, rubbery material as Batman's leg armor is. The butterfly joints on his shoulders also have a very limited range of motion, but I will say it's nice that they are there. None of this is to say that you can't get him in impressive poses, because you absolutely can. This is aided by the fact that the figure comes with a really great, really functional stand that holds the figure around his waist. The problems that are here are just small shortcomings to an amazing figure.The accessories he comes with are also awesome. Packaged are 3 extra sets of hands (alongside the two fist hands already placed on the figure), an alternate head, a handgun, and a relatively large knife. It's hard to go wrong with any mix of these accessories, and the only small issue here is that you can't have him hold both the knife and the gun at the same time. Personally, this wasn't a big deal to me, as I didn't plan on displaying him with both at the same time, but it's something worth noting. The accessories included were given the same care and attention as the rest of the figure. Everything is painted exceptionally well (especially his heads and hands), and the sculpts are amazing. The knife even has small dings and scratches to portray use. It's wonderful, and everything here looks amazing.All in all, I would say if you're in the market for an Arkham City Joker figure, or an awesome Joker figure in general, Play Arts Kai is the way to go. It's just painted, sculpted and articulated so well, and it comes with really great accessories. It's hard to find fault with this figure, though you should be warned of the limited feet articulation and the not-so-impressive butterfly joints on the shoulders. Even so, this is still an immensely impressive figure, and it's the best Arkham Joker figure ever made. It's possibly one of the best Joker figures ever made, period. I'd easily recommend this to fans of the game series, or Batman fans in general. It's a truly amazing product.

"Let's put a smile on that face!"
I recently started my Batman figures collection from Play Arts Kai and got to say, they keep amazed me every times I unbox one of theirs figures. To keep it simple:- Very well built figure with beautiful painting, highly detailed.- Great articulation. I can pose him however I wanted.- The joints are tight yet also flexible.- Durable, I enjoy posing him a little before putting him on display.- I really like the way they made his face, looks very Joker.- Cool accessories, with 2 extra hands, a pistol and a knife.Overall: Beautiful figure, great to display with others Batman figures. A must-have for any Batman fans out there. Highly recommend this one.

Quick delivery! The Joker looks amazing. It'll fit perfect in my glass case with my Batman. The detail on the Joker is great I love how simple it is to prop him up and change his face, hands and weapons. Nice Work Play Arts Kai.

If only the leg would stay attached!
The figure is awesome. It stands at around 9 inches. Bigger than the normal 6/7 inch scale figures. Looks very cool and not as shinny as some videos/pictures make him out to be, which I prefer. The sculpting is fantastic. You can get various poses from this figure. On of my favorite Joker figures. True to his nature (creepy posture, hand sculpting, and body type).The only thing that I am unhappy with is the right leg. It came off of its joint too easy and when putting it into a pose where I put the legs together or far apart, it'll come off and I have to put it back in. It is really annoying. I imagine it is not a problem with all the Joker figures. It stays in place where I need it to be, so that makes it okay. Otherwise, it is amazing.
