Harley Quinn




The Joker’s female companion Harley Quinn has gone through a lot of changes over the years since her introduction in the Batman: The Animated Series and her comic book premiere in Batman Adventures.

Her attire has changed completely since then.  I prefer her old outfit.  For a classic Harley Quinn figure in her original costume toy collectors should search out and purchase Tonner's Harley Quinn prestige figure.

Sadly Tonner no longer creates figures of DC characters.  But when they did they turned out some of most gorgeous figures in the business.

The Harley Quinn figure comes in a custom black box with a DC Stars logo.

The figure is cradled inside the box wrapped in tissue paper, carefully held in place by silk strips and cushioned with foam and plastic. Every precaution was taken to ensure the figure did not get damaged.  It’s impressive.

The figure stands approximately 18 inches tall.  Harley’s arms and legs are long and slender and they, along with the rest of her torso, are articulated.

The body is constructed of plastic that looks a lot like porcelain.  It’s easy see that a great deal of time was spent to make the figure look completely feminine with its graceful curves and muscles and skeleton contouring the clothing much like a real human figure.

Harley’s face is a portrait of beauty with her large blue eyes, painted iris and pupils with highlights, carefully applied eyebrows, small pert nose and large red lips.

Her ghostly white skin makes her features really pop and her long golden tresses made of fine follicles of plastic look real either flowing over her shoulders or tucked into her jester’s cap.

Her classic Harley Quinn jester outfit features a split black and red checkered pattern with a large star shaped white collar with white pop-poms.

Her jester’s cap also has two large pop-poms for each of the red and black ’horns’.

Small card deck symbols in red or black decorates each limp. She wears one red and one black boot.

Large gathered white tuffs of fabric end each sleeve at her wrists.

Harley’s hands are bone white with red fingernails.  A small eye mask also accompanies the outfit as well as solid red and black gloves.

The gloves, cap, boots and outfit fit snuggly over the figure and move smoothly without binding when the figure is posed.

It is an absolutely beautiful figure complemented by its attire, packaging and overall look.

Tonner figures are expensive and the Harley Quinn figures sells for approximately $250.
