'Hot Toys' is Hong Kong-based company that's known for its ability to manufacture collectibles with an amazing accuracy. In preparation for the release of 'Suicide Squad,' Hot Toys released a limited edition collectible of the Joker character that's portrayed by actor Jared Leto.
The figurine is unbelievably realistic, with every last detail contained on the collectible's small frame. This includes minuscule face tattoos, small cuts, individual hairs and intricate gold teeth.
The eyes of the Hot Toys Joker are probably the most impressive however, with the glistening paint making it look as though its come to life. The collectible comes dressed in a straight jacket and with a chair, allowing it to be showcased in a number of different poses -- which is made possible by its 30 points of articulation.
