Nothing. No jokes about Hot Toys selling their souls to Satan or being aliens which toy sculpting technology infinitely more advanced than anything we have on Earth. Just look at this new Dark Knight Joker figure -- the first in their Movie Masterpiece Deluxe line -- and be awed with me. I don't know that I can even articulate how it looks more realistic than their already terrifyingly realistic first Joker figure, but it does. And look at all the shit it comes with:
But that's not even the really scary part. Look back up at the first picture, then look at this one:
Notice anything? Like, maybe, how the eyes are looking in different directions?
Hot Toys is proud to announce our brand new product line - MMS DX (Movie Masterpiece Deluxe), featuring a newly developed technique on the eyes of our collectible - Parallel Eyeball Rolling System (PERS) with Colored Translucent Iris. ... PERS is a brand new technique applies to Hot Toys MMSDX figurines, special features include:...yeah. so basically, Hot Toys has made an action figure than can look at you no matter where you are.
• Unique designed eyeballs with colored translucent Iris
• Simultaneous Positionable Eyeball Function
• Works in all direction, as natural as human eyes
Forget about Skynet. Hot Toys is where the robot uprising begins. But at least we'll get some sweet-ass toys out of it along the way to our eventual extinction. (Via Action-Figure)

Yikes, that is extremely creepy. I can't get over how eerily real their toys are getting. I find it appropriate that the Joker is the first one that can watch you wherever you are...
Oh, and happy birthday!

Wha-what? What? Holy shit.....WHAT?
I-I don't even know what to say to that, it's so marvelous. There needs to be a new word for amazing. I would kill my own family if it meant getting my hands on one of those.

I had, up until now, been able to avoid setting foot on the slippery slope of the high-end, Sideshow or Hot Toys level collectible figure. I was content to stick to 3 3/4" Joes, Target-ready Transformers, and the occasional vintage Nasta Reactor or Sky Commander that eBay sees fit to allow me to win for my already absurd classic collection. This, however, is something else entirely, and might be the tipping point. Poorhouse here I come!

They still don't do hair very well, though. Shame.

My god...I don't even really like toys anymore. And action figures? Not since my female cousin called my first real GIJoe figure a "doll" when I was 12 have I ever looked at them the same way. But I must have this. I mean, son of a bitch. This is absolutely amazing.

Meh... moving-eye 1/6th figures are nothing new. Enterbay's Bruce Lee of a little while back had them, likewise their recent 24 Jack Bauer and David Palmer, and the concept itself seems to ave originated in Hasbro/Palitoy's G.I. Joe/Action Man line back in the 70s.

But the moving eyes combined with the absolutely spectacular work and detail in this figure takes it to the next level.
The facial expressions seem to be have designed with the moving eyes in mind to really enhance the creepiness factor.

Wow, I'm impressed. That looks "indian in the cupboard," real. I'm too scared to even think about owning it. Great job.

That'd be Jester. Now they just need to make Blade, Tunneler, Pinhead and Leech Woman...

Holy Poo! Wow! I don't think I would be guilty spending probably a whole weeks worth of pay on it. Oh the detail! The detail!

You can stop now, because this thing is the ultimate action figure. If it transformed into a working gun, it couldn't be cooler.

Anyone else reminded of that Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episode with Krusty, and by extension the Twilight Zone.
Khip Dynamite said:
Yeah, but can you have sex with it?
Kommander Koolpants said:
I can't think of anything but Small Soldiers. Now, wouldn't THAT be cool with these toys...

That made my vagina wet, and I don't have one.
