This is such a great figure. I can't wait to own one myself. I hope we get more Michael Jackson figures down the line. Im a huge fan, and with Hot Toys great likenesses and posing options, it really captures MJ.

Seems a shame though that they chose to go with "Bad" for the next one. Its an overly elaborate costume that is sure to bump up the price, and its a song that wasn't all that great. Even MJ considers it somewhat of a failure (its was one of only a few of his big singles not to be included in the "This is It" tour).

Personally I hope we get:

-Mowtown 25 anniversary Bille Jean
-Beat It
-Smooth Criminal
-Black and White
-Dangerous Tour
-This is It Final Rehersal

Here his homepage

Amazing, Joey, amazing

A lot of creepy looking stuff on there and not in a bad way. Creepy like that wax full size figures they have here in the UK? https://www.madametussauds.com/London/

You know they ain't real but they look freakishly real.

To me Bad is the quintessential MJ. The song and the cover/look. When I think MJ (pre-crazy MJ) I think of Bad.

^^Pre-crazy MJ?

That's awesome Kuzeh! Where did you get the jacket from?

What happened to the person who got that awesome custom painted Thriller MJ off ebay? I repainted mine a little and I think it looks pretty good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNgXEgrE41s

Thanks dude!

I just need to add a new custom "M" patch on top of it!!

Very Nice Kuzeh,that "GO AWAYYYYYY" expression.

Re: HT- M ICON- MIS09- Michael Jackson (Thriller version)-Link to buy from SS in 1st

Yeah, very nice.

Also, for anyone still thinking about buying this figure they have at Amiami for just US $130 (here) at the moment. I don't know what it's selling for on eBay at the moment but as far as set-prices that seems to me a very nice deal.

I notice also they have Kamui Gaiden marked down to just US $85 (here), while on this subject...

Re: HT- M ICON- MIS09- Michael Jackson (Thriller version)-Link to buy from SS in 1st

It's already sold out. Amazing deal on Kamui though.

Btw, how much is shipping? I couldn't figure it out because I would have to submit the order before it would tell me (a big 'WTF?').

Is the MJ Thriller body and the AA Slim Truetype skintone exactly the same?

 

[AStar]

Re: HT- M ICON- MIS09- Michael Jackson (Thriller version)-Link to buy from SS in 1st

^^Yep!

Just bought an extra one the other day so I could display both MJ regular & zombie!

MJ figure is nothing more than AA TrueType w/ MJ likeness headsculpt & accessories!

Re: HT- M ICON- MIS09- Michael Jackson (Thriller version)-Link to buy from SS in 1st

Cool, I was just going to buy the AA slim hands and didn't know if they matched.

Re: HT- M ICON- MIS09- Michael Jackson (Thriller version)-Link to buy from SS in 1st

Its definetly worth buying an extra body and displaying normal Michael and michael as the zombie.

About the member here who bought that awesome repaint off ebay... did they ever post pics of it when they got it?

I forgot all about that, I really wanted to see some in-hand shots of it.
