Hot Toys Reveals The Dark Knight Joker 2.0 MMS DX

I am a huge fan of the original Hot Toys The Dark Knight Joker MMS DX, and they’ve just revealed the second version, which they’re calling Joker 2.0. I can’t tell if the PERS head is changed from the original, but the sequel will come with an alternate laughing head, a bunch of other accessories (including a desk with magic trick pencil – uh oh!) and upgraded cloth goods, which are described in this interview with Hot Toys costume artist Kato.

The figure itself looks to be a standard DC Universe Classics buck, and the suit is a flexible overlay. I imagine it will limit most of the articulation, but as presented in package (the armory of the Batcave) it looks pretty cool.
