Any demand for Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker action figures?

I’m honestly surprised there’s not even a collectible statue made out of him yet (or at least officially). Given the massive success of the film, you’d think DC wouldn’t waste an opportunity for that.

[Gurz]

Yeah, i want one.

Maybe because Joker was obviously not a movie intended for children they don't want a toy version of the character, despite the fact lots of adults collect action figures. I would guess a lot of
busy body groups would raise a stink about this and WB doesn't want the negative publicity. A lot of stink was raised about Batman Returns toys in Happy Meals and that was before the internet
was as big a thing. So I can sort of imagine the blow back this would cause.

Regular action figure no but maybe there will be Hot Toys.

So we can get an action figure of Jason Voorhees or Negan but god help it if there’s one of a guy who’s more famous for dancing on steps?

Those characters are less associated with comic books and to the general public and especially the busy bodies action figures for comic book characters are toys for children. I don't know, I was just offering a theory.
