A new Australian toy company known as Geek X is developing new officially licensed line of DC Comics collectibles. The collector focused company aims to “bridge the gap between the Australian, US, Japanese and Chinese markets and to reduce the price points“. They will feature their own in-house designers and sculptors, hoping to make collecting rewarding and affordable. One of their first items will be a bust featuring a hybrid of The Joker and Batman, that they are calling BXJ. Their BXJ 1/2 Scale Bust stands at roughly 16.5″ tall, and is cast in polystone resin. The bust is hand painted and includes an acrylic display case.
Pricing and release dates have not been announced yet for the BXJ Bust. Pre-orders are expected to go live “soon”, and we’re awaiting word on who will be carrying the products. For now, you can check out photos and details for the bust after the jump.
– 42cm FROM BOTTOM OF BASE TO TOP OF COWL
– MADE FROM HIGH QUALITY POLYSTONE
– HAND PAINTED
– COMES WITH ACRYLIC CASE READY TO DISPLAY
– OFFICIALLY LICENSED BY DC/WB‘You can’t kill me without becoming like me. I can’t kill you without losing the only human being who can keep up with me.’
Batman and Joker are foes on opposite ends of the spectrum in every way: appearance, morality and beliefs. Their storied history has seen much blood shed, tragedy and chaos; a volatile recipe that’s lead to an everlasting relationship and perhaps even friendship.
Geek X have sewn Batman and Joker together, to illustrate their chaotic bond, their animosity and their attachment to each other.The half-bust symbolises their duality through the use of the stitches, keeping Batman and The Joker from separating. Their pain is shared equally, constant and fierce, and yet, they cannot survive without each other. On the base, Batman’s Batarang shadows The Joker’s calling card, completing the union of calamity.
Standing approximately 42 cm tall, the Joker/Batman 1:2 scale hybrid bust (BXJ) is made of polystone resin, hand painted and encased in a beautiful acrylic case.

DC Comics "BXJ" Bust by Geek X

Not for me, but I do kind of like it.
I really like this one, though the side profiles are a bit odd looking. Kind of makes both sides look chubby or something. Depending on price though, I may order one.
It's a neat idea. If they make a nice bust of Composite Superman like he appeared in the classic Curt Swan comic, I might be tempted.
Love it! So excited for this!!!!
Yooooo That's so cool!
INCREDIBLE! This is so refreshing to see! For so long, I’ve become used to seeing Batman on a gargoyle. I’m very excited to see what else Geek X has in store! I’m a life-long Batman fan so I’ll be totally pre-ordering this!

Keep up the great work!
Real rad, love the half half stitch, really ties in the characters and how they are one in of the same. Keen to see Geek X around the scene.

I liked GeekX's designs so much, I bought the company!
oh wait… no I didn't. LOL
This is ok, but honestly kinda too Frankenstein's monster for my tastes. If it was just a "split screen" composite like people do with Venom & Spiderman, and Joker had eyes, I'd be warmer to it. As it stands, it just looks too "zombie" for me.
The detail and artistry is definitely there, so I'd like to see some other statues from the sculptor.
