GCPD Alert to all Gotham and Tri-State citizens: be on the look-out for one or more women, aged 15-30, calling herself the 'Harlequin of Crime'. This or these individuals are wanted for questioning in the deaths of four individuals, twenty-seven assaults, and numerous robberies and burglary cases since her or their first appearance three days ago.

Eyewitness accounts vary on the 'Harlequin's height and weight, and the use of facepaint lead to the possibility of multiple individuals committing these crimes under one alias. Her comical appearance and use of a Joker-themed bumper car, apparently modified with a nitrous oxide-capable engine, seem to indicate a connection to the notorious 'Joker' individual wanted in connection with the deaths and maimings of dozens of Gothamites.

If seen, DO NOT APPROACH IN ANY MANNER. Leave the area and contact the GCPD by calling 911 or 1-800-337-GCPD (4273).






The Harlequin is a bash of the DCD Injustice figure's head, skirt, and glove cuffs pasted onto an MU X-23. I removed the top of the calves and created a lower knee hinge socket to bring her legs into proper proportion. The camera flash completely washed out the accordion-folding of the construction paper collar I built, but I made it by wrapping the paper around my triangular file, the wrapping it backwards at half-points to create the reverse folds (hopefully that makes sense).

The bumper car is from the ImagiNext Joker playset. I cut the seat out to set it higher, and she folds her knees under to 'grab' the seat bottom.

The application of the red looks great on her...do that give you any problems?

I hate painting red.

Thanks, gents. Yeah, the red was a metric pain in the ass. You're looking at like 20-odd coats, with matte sealant in between every 2-3 coats. I'd been painting her for like a week and a half!
