To condition-check the Hot Toys MMS 395 The Joker, inspect the tuxedo fabric for pilling, stretching, or discoloration, as the material is prone to wear. Examine the sculpted head for any hairline cracks, particularly around the jaw and forehead, and verify that the paint on the face and hands is intact without chipping. Check the articulation points for looseness or play, and ensure the included accessories, such as the cane and alternate hands, are free from stress fractures. If you require a formal grade for resale, submit the figure to a third-party grading service like PSA, noting that the figure's age may result in a lower grade due to natural material degradation.
