Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5 by Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Overall, The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017) is a very interesting series, to say the least. There are a number of very obscure characters from the Batman universe but director Chris McKay did mention before that the movie will go deep into Batman lore which includes characters from Batman's Rogues Gallery and that's exactly what we're getting in this series.

He's very cute, with two face options to choose from. My son absolutely loves this Joker figure. It arrived in excellent condition and on time.

Recommendation: no 2 / 5 by Jay

Of note is Joker's fantastic new hairpiece and face. Given that he's quite a big fixture in The LEGO Batman Movie sets, you're probably going to end up with multiples of him. I do like both his faces, especially the alternate face which has an incredibly sad face, complete with teary eyes. The accessory is a bit of a letdown, just a regular pair of grey handcuffs which are extremely common. Given that The Joker is really common in the LEGO Batman Movie sets, the Arkham Asylum Joker only gives you a unique Joker head, which for the price that you're paying per blind bag, is pretty poor value.

Recommendation: no 1 / 5 by Vaderfan2187

I am not a fan of the minifigure. Sure, it's a good way to get more Arkham inmate suits, but the Arkham Asylum set from The LEGO Batman Movie has a Arkham inmate Joker as well. That makes this seem really redundant. If it had a special purple suit that looked similar to the regular Joker it would be more useful as it would be a cheap way to get a normal purple Joker. It doesn't help that his accessories are uninspired as well. His hair is the regular Joker hair and the handcuffs are, well, handcuffs. Boring from start to finish.

Like other LEGO Collectible Minifigures, each figure comes sealed in a blind bag, and there are 60 figures in case. Our case broke into 3 complete sets of 20 figures, which will make sharing a case with friends much easier.
