Jared Leto's
Joker donned numerous outfits in David Ayer's
Suicide Squad, but the one that excited fans the most was the comic-inspired tuxedo the character sported in the film's trailers.
Sadly, we didn't get to see all that much of this look in the film's final cut, but that hasn't stopped
Hot Toys from creating their own variant to commemorate the outfit, complete with a purple cane, hand grenade and golden assault rifle. Check out the images and description of the 1/6th scale figure below!
In the DC Comics blockbuster Suicide Squad, Academy Award-winning actor Jared Leto delivers an edgy new take on the Joker unlike anything we've seen before. The flamboyant makeup and wardrobe certainly makes his ballsy performance even more fun and memorable. Today Hot Toys is excited to announce the new 1/6th scale collectible figure of the Clown Prince of Crime in formal wear – a black tuxedo that highlights his manic charisma!
The movie-accurate collectible figure is specially crafted based on Leto's image as the Joker in a black tux, which traces its origin to the classic comics. It features a newly painted head sculpt, newly developed body, finely tailored costume, detailed weapons and accessories, and a specially designed Suicide Squad-themed figure stand with character backdrop.
HAHAHA....We can't wait to see this very special Joker figure in your Hot Toys collection!
It feels good to be bad… Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?
