Hot Toys Michael Jackson

Unlike everyone else, I don't have much to say about Michael Jackson. Joe Franzem put it best: "He was a guy that made one great album then went crazy." There was so much damn crazy that I pulled farther and farther back. I haven't paid attention to the media circus which followed.

But I did pay attention when Hot Toys announced this:




You might think this opportunistic but these figures take at least a year to develop. Seven Japanese designers didn't know he would die. But man, that zombie Michael is going to make people lose their shit.

Interesting, in Japan it must be marketed as "King of Pop" [that is what is says in the photo. :)

These do look good. Obviously they were working on theses, maybe to launch with the the scheduled concerts...
