My old roomie wants one of these for Christmas...I'm debating if that's too much to spend on her. Then again, her mother spoiled us during the summer, so I don't think it's too bad. I just don't want to give the impression that I'm trying to outdo her in the 'look-how-much-I-spent-on-you' contest.
But I do like pushing his little buttons and making him talk.

One of my nephews is getting that next week for his birthday. I'm hatefully jealous of him.
That just means you'll have to get him something that comes in a big box. That way while he's distracted with the box you can play around with the Bumblebee. It's the perfect plan, reax.
OH YEAH! I got shown that last week! Isn't it precious?!
Old men, fear me! You will shatter under my ruthless apathetic assault!

Since it's an Iron Man figure, with Robert Downey Jr portaying the Armored Avenger, and Tony Stark as well, the figure ought to come with accessories such as:
What Doctor was Davison supposed to be? Because he wasn't playing the fifth Doctor!
No kidding.
Well, after a decade of doing Big Finish audios as Number Five, Davison has morphed his portrayal along the lines of how he pretty much would have always played the character. Naturally, TPTB back in the day had other ideas, and we're left with the vulnerable 5th Doc.
And, tits to all of you. Charity or not, Time Crash was some awesomeness...

The Joker looks so key! I am so getting this.
Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
Joker looks pretty good. Batman not so much, especially the use of the damn "Superman blue" color for the cape and cowl (not to mention trunks, gloves and boots).
The use of this blue is especially egregious for a KJ Batman figure, in my opinion, given that Bollard drew the cape and cowl as black with blue highlights. As such, the figure hardly captures the character's look in the book.
In all honesty, I wouldn't be buying it for the Batman figure - its all about the Joker ... love that one.

While in shadow, yes. But when Batman was in the light, it was clearly the blue cape and cowl.

I can't see the sculpt, but I think it was in previews and I already ordered it.

Good point, doc. I had forgotten about that sequence.
Still, the coloring of the blue was a lot deeper than what's seen on the tie. If DC insists on painting Batman blue I wish they'd at least use a midnight or navy blue, instead of that light color they tend to use.

So if G-Man keeps it in the closet with him, the cowl will be the appropriate color for him...
