The Joker


Schleich (known for its museum quality miniature animal and dinosaur figures) is taking on the DC Comics Universe this fall. 

At this year's San Diego Comic-Con Scheisch presented a 1,000 piece limited run of its upcoming Joker figure.  I'm proud to say I am the proud owner of one of the 1,000. The classic Joker figure stands with legs slightly apart.  His maniacal grin stretches across his white face as his bright green hair falls over his forehead.  

His grinning red lips are pulled back over his large white teeth and his piecing eyes barely masquerade the insanity hidden behind them.

With his purple suit, yellow vest and green bowtie The Joker looks like a clown-the Clown Prince of Crime!

Holding his hat in one purple gloved hand The Joker gestures with his left hand as if taking a bow for his nefarious deeds.

This is The Joker at his most maniacal and he can be yours (along with nearly a dozen other DC figures) come this fall.

Expertly sculpted, painted and detailed the Joker is a masterpiece of madness.
