Here's a Joker Worth Almost His Weight in Gold

The Joker returns in the form of a great figure. Talented artists have recreated Arthur Fleck's bust in real size, and they price their work very highly. But I don't think we should be surprised.

If the name Queen Studios doesn't ring any bells when it comes to online stores, you should probably take an interest in it. You can find there many, let's not be afraid to say it, works of art, presenting the most popular characters from Marvel and DC universes. And these are usually figures that do not differ in size from the real characters.

One of the latest works of the aforementioned artists from Queen Studios is the bust of Arthur Fleck, known more widely as the Joker (played by Joaquin Phoenix). Literally every detail of his face, makeup or clothing has been recreated, followed by a slightly smaller figure of the same character looking in the mirror (a reference to one of the scenes from Todd Phillips' movie). Below you can watche sculpture from several angles, but we warn you - if you like it enough to buy, you'll have to reckon with a lot of expense. Most such works from the studio costs from three to three and a half thousand dollars. Quite a lot, isn't it?

His adventure with journalism began with a personal blog, the name of which is no longer worth quoting. Then he interpreted Iranian dramas and the Joker, writing for cinematography journal, which, sadly, no longer exists. His writing credentials include a degree in film studies, but his thesis was strictly devoted to video games. He has been writing for Gamepressure since March 2020, first writing a lot about movies, then in the newsroom, and eventually, he became a specialist in everything. He currently edits and writes articles and features. A long-time enthusiast of the most bizarre indie games and arthouse cinema. He idolizes surrealism and postmodernism. He appreciates the power of absurdity. Which is probably why he also tried soccer refereeing for 2 years (with so-so results). He tends to over-philosophize, so watch out.
