ToyCyte: Toy Culture Collected

So I’m sure many of you have seen the newest Batman movie, The Dark Knight. No??? What are were you thinking about??!!! Well if you have seen it, then the next figure is obviously a no-brainer.

Killer J has announced that he will be releasing a great homage piece using one of his figures, the Smoking Star. This is a homage piece to The Joker played by Heath Ledger, who had done a outstanding job on this film before his unexpected death. It’s great to see many people who have grown up reading and watching this villain but it is more great to see that there are a lot of fans overseas also.

This figure will be released on December 1^st at Popsoda for only 2500yen (~$25USD). Not only has he wrote that this will be released but also he has given a clue that there will be an overseas release next. What can this be???

Well one guess is this: I have gotten information that on December 17^th, LULUBELL will be releasing two versions of the Smoking Star. The clean and dirty version painted by a San Jose local artist, Joe Wu.  Maybe this is what Killer J is talking about on his site when he mentions an overseas exclusive. Or maybe there’s more to come….
