Why So Serious? Get the July PREVIEWS Exclusive Joker Miracle Action Figure

(BALTIMORE, MD) - (July 14, 2014) - Re-create your favorite scenes from Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker with the PREVIEWS Exclusive Dark Knight Joker Miracle Action Figure (MAF EX) from MEDICOM Toy! The Joker Miracle Action Figure is available to pre-order from the July issue of PREVIEWS and will be released in comic book specialty shops in late April 2015.

Fans of Batman, the Joker and Heath Ledger's performance in The Dark Knight won't want to miss out on getting their own Dark Night Joker Miracle Action Figure (Item Code: APR148224, SRP: $49.99, Page 500) coming exclusively to comic book specialty shops. Standing just over 6" tall, this chilling reproduction of the sinister criminal includes alternate heads and hands, plus a full arsenal of weapons to recreate many of his signature moments from the film!

"We're very excited to present the second MAF EX release in the Dark Knight Trilogy line from MEDICOM Toy," said Diamond Brand Manager Jesse Morgan. "We had such a great reaction to MEDICOM's Christian Bale last year, so when we were asked if we wanted a Joker, we leapt at the chance! I think this is the definitive Heath Ledger toy; it's ultra-articulated, comes with a ton of accessories, yet still captures his likeness. We're also thrilled to announce that we'll be displaying Heath Ledger alongside a new sculpt of Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle, as well as an in-scale Batpod at the Diamond PREVIEWSworld Booth #2401 during Comic-Con International: San Diego this month. Next year should be a great one for fans seeking the finest collectibles from the Christopher Nolan trilogy!"

The Dark Knight Joker figure is featured in the July PREVIEWS catalog on page 500 and is scheduled to be released exclusively in comic book shops April 2015. To pre-order, find a local comic shop at www.comicshoplocator.com.
