Summary
Based on the Golden Age art style, especially Dick Sprang's 1950s influence, this Joker figure features three interchangeable heads with different hair and a wired long coat suit tailored in period-accurate colors. It includes a minimal but distinctive accessory set such as a buzzer hand, Joker card hand, a hat, Gotham City Police badge with acid effect, and a unique spring buckle utility belt. Despite its simpler accessory load and lower price point, the figure offers versatile display options with multiple head and hand combinations reflecting the classic era aesthetic.
