STAR ACE TOYS BATMAN NINJA - THE JOKER (DX VERSION)!
It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!
Today, we’re checking the 1:6th scale Joker figure from the Batman Ninja movie by Star Ace Toys, the Deluxe version!
First things first: Yes, Batman Ninja, the anime movie…wasn’t great. It was wacky and pretty bad, but at the same time, so much fun! There’s samurai battles, and even giant mechas made of monkeys and bats fighting! I shit you not! It has become a guilty pleasure of mine.
One thing that I love about the movie is the character designs, by the great Takashi Okazaki (Afro Samurai). It seems I am a sucker for anything that is given a feudal Japan twist (Star Wars Movie Realization figures from Bandai for example…stay tuned for next week’s review *wink wink*), and that line hit the right spot for me. Batman being one of the main things I collect, I couldn’t pass on this. I already had the Batman Ninja himself anyway!
The figure looks very good, with an amazing headsculpt. The tailoring is also surprisingly nice, which wasn’t obvious on the Batman figure since it had a lot less soft goods on it.
The Deluxe version comes with a nice base and a barrel to sit the Joker on, as well as a few extra accessories, like the prank-tanegashima (Japanese rifle) with its flag. All the accessories can be displayed on the base, there are holes and slits (hmm…) to allow you to place all the items on it, so that it looks cool. A clever touch, which allows you to also display the accessories, instead of just keeping them stored in the box.
Star Ace Toys has already announced a Catwoman, a Harley Quinn and a Modern version of the Batman with light-up features (from when they are in the present, in the movie), which will destroy my wallet when they come out. Yay!
