What's the cheapest place to pre order The Joker 2.0? I'm in California and don't want to pay tax. I don't care when it comes.
Thanks
You could check out BigBadToyStore in Wisconsin.

I think your paintwork is a huge improvement over this guy. Great job.Thanks! I painted over the runny tears under his eyes and made the smear over his right eye more subtle. Also covered up a bit of the black smears on his chin.
Someone wanna do a pencil scene pic?

That's a lot to digest. My thing about these custom sculpts I've been seeing is that they either look neutral or angry like the one above whereas in the movie, the Joker is always making faces and never looking serious, including the interrogation scene you mentioned. The only time I recall seeing anything close to anger was during the final confrontation with Batman.

as requested by darkavatar--well not the first pic but thought it looked good, so...
and as for the adam vs HT debate:
i respect the opinion preferring the yulli sculpt but i dont know that you can say adam didnt show a range of variety in his ledger/joker sculpts. albeit subtle, as in the one i have pictured here, there is a definite expression going on and it is almost an exact mirror of a promotional image from the mcu interrogation with joker at the table and bats standing behind him. there have also been a whole load of other expressions done by adam that range from maniacal laughing to 'almost' neutral looks but they all have character held in their features. there were some shots of rows of sculpts he had done which were posted in various threads--and i dont know where almost any of them ended up or if they just went into adam's teeming trashcan like so many uncanny sculpts that dont make his grade. but for sure, the PERS does lend a more obvious ability to alter the look. i am not really such a PERS fan tho. but i do look forward to receiving the full 2.0dx set when it is released and will likely keep the PERS HS to tinker with--though i havent yet decided how.
as far as the clothing: i agree the dx shirt is better tailored, and the tie is more saturated and skinnier--which i believe is actually more accurate, for those that are into that sort of thing. the pants are fine tho the color is slightly different and the pinistripes are thinner and also a different color--though almost imperceptibly. the stitching is probably the largest change as far as quality but you cant really compete with handmade customs in that department.
@darkavatar: i do have to disagree about the kato custom shirt, or shirts--i should say--as there were two different versions. the darker one is the one i prefer but i dont think that either really nail the movie versions. granted, the shirt is probably the hardest part to replicate and, depending on scene, were actually different shirts but i dont think that anyone has done them correctly in miniaturized scale. the closest, i would say, is the EB 4th scale.
also, the chain on the new dx pants is different to the custom versions--of which i have 3, all different: one a short silver, one a short gold and the last, a long gold--my favorite and most accurate of the bunch. the HT version actually has better length than the two shorter custom versions but is not as good as the long one. also the link isnt up to par with the custom chains. but you cant win all the time.
also, since i'm being picky: the pants--on both versions--could have been baggier; possibly somewhere between the EB and kato/HT versions. but again, this isnt something i really lament or anything like that.
overall, the kato suit--any version--is outstanding and a real gift to sixth scale collectors.
i'm glad you guys like the weathering job i did on that kato set; was my first 'weathering' attempt and i dare say the new kato joker set i am currently working on is better and more accurate. you'd be surprised by just how much dirt was actually covering the maniac. thought i had gone overboard on my first attempt--and in some ways i did--but i realized there is actually more grime than i applied, just in a much larger variation of thickness.
yeah, sorry guys, that was a bit of a monologue. ive never had a bobby in hand, so i cant really say for certain if one is better than the other. i love neo's interrogation bobby tho and if i were to get one i'd definitely go with the mcu look.

haha yeah sorry about the length there, just got sort of carried away.
also forgot to mention that the job neo did on the pattern for the custom shirt was really great.
