I knew it was going to happen. Anything with Heath Ledger in TDK is bound to be a collectible. My only problem was I didn't react in time.
But I did get a Destructo-Case JOKER Dark Knight Figure. There were only two left at a near Toys R Us.
You won't find the Heath Ledger figure. They're gone....Ebay or Comic book convention would be best chances.

Super hero action figures havn't been worth collecting IMHO since the 1984 Super powers collection, and the early 90's Marvel hey day of figures from toy biz.
Damn! So close to getting one last night. Damn! So close....

Might have to go out of my way and have one imported.

still waiting for my case to come in .. Canadian retail isn't carrying MM as far as I can tell and very few are actually carrying the Basic line either ... toy stores are concentrating more on Iron Man still
You know, it just dawned on me; the "evidence bag" is for the joker card, isn't it? In my defense, I haven't seen these at retail, I pre-ordered mine and it's the only figure from the line that I've seen, in person.
Nobody needs to go out and drop $50 on these figures or have them imported or stock up on them for future profit. The figure has simply sold out. Mattel isn't going to breaak the mold and stop producing them, they've simply sold out of all the ones they made up to this point. So, be patient and give them a little time, and there will be plenty for everyone. WB and Mattel aren't going to have a movie in theaters that no one can buy the mercandise for, especially the action figure of the movie's central character.
It's pretty hard to call it now DK. The collectible business can be pretty tricky at times. You see these high prices because of Hoarders/Resellers and this have always been a tug of war with the collectors.
Mattle CAN remold the figure OR might do some changes. Whichever happens will affect the outcome. People will still get a Joker's action figure...this particular one? It's fate is still unknown at this time.

the kids that bought this figurine are in for a big dissapointment once they see that Ledger looks nothing like this joker with his green hair they are portraying him to have with a clean cut look.They are in for a dissapointment when they see him on screen and he REALLY looks like he does in that sig that Devil King and Baily have displayed where you see that his hair is a very poor shade of green and you can see his real hair color -brown coming through, showing that he looks like he needs to take a bath.
