Description

Deciding exactly where I was going to take my inspiration from was very difficult. Do I go movie joker? Do I go classic comic joker? Do I do modern comic joker? Do I go Batman animated series classic Mark Hamill style joker? Faces are always a challenge. The Joker was one that went through the most revisions. There are so many takes on The Joker, so many different versions of him. It’s also worth noting that you may be thrown off in your Iron Man build thanks to a mistake in LEGO’s instructions. Between steps 48 and 49, Iron Man suddenly gains a mysterious wedge plate on his chin, which is gone again on step 50. But don’t worry, the final steps of the manual show the correct way to complete the chin as intended.

The pens were used as a framing device in my original photos, but I never considered them to be part of the sketch itself. We had a very brief discussion about the pens early on but agreed to move forward without them.

They came about as a result of something we have internally called Creative Boost. It’s an opportunity where we as designers can propose our own product ideas, themes and whatnot, to see if they get any traction. This year's virtual Fan Media days are over so we now have some great content to share with you over the coming weeks.

How did it differ designing them to be LEGO sets compared to designing them before you joined the company? Of course now we have many more wedge plates with different angles, so they open up so many more possibilities: you can give so much more nuance to characters thanks to them. For example, if you look at the Joker's eyes, the way they're done with the 2x2 wedges next to each other was not something that was possible until recently. Honestly I don’t think it has quite sunk in yet, I am sure the interviews today are going to help. I guess it’s one of these things you do, then you put it away for a while, then suddenly it’s happening because the product’s being released. This is my first product release and obviously I am really excited about it. I'm told by our resident Marvel expert that the design is generic, and not based on any particular version of the helmet, and that the yellow colour is inspired by the superhero's comics appearances rather than the films.So, that is the reason why Batman was up-sized compared to my original. The fun thing about upsizing Batman is that got to use new and different parts for it and do things that I couldn't do outside the company. So that was fun for me. Creative Boost is a bit like a science fair. You set your product idea out, put a placard up, and then the leadership team takes a look round and decides which ones to progress. I was very fortunate that these were selected to be developed and taken forward to become a product. It was just an incredible surprise to me that this happened! Released on 1 June 2020, The Joker (set number: 40428) is based on the fictional DC Comics supervillain, The Joker. It consists of 170 pieces and can be displayed standing up on desks or hung by its built-in hook on a wall.
