Hot Toys’ 12-Inch Scale ‘Bad’ Michael Jackson
There’s another cool toy from Hot Toys out there, and another cool 12-inch scale action figure that’s not quite enough awesome to push me to order it. Instead, all I’ll do today is point at this Michael Jackson ‘BAD’ 12-inch scale action figure* and stare in wonder at the quality of Hot Toys’ work. I would definitely rather have the Thriller Michael Jackson (mentioned here), but I wouldn’t complain if this one found its way into my collection.
“Sideshow Collectibles is proud to bring you the latest in Hot Toys’ Icon series, Michael Jackson, whose iconic song “Bad” has been widely enjoyed since it’s 1987 release. Paying tribute to our King of Pop, the 1/6th scale Michael Jackson collectible figure depicts his image in the popular “Bad” music video, highlighting the authentic head sculpt, multi-layered stereoscopic hair sculpture and a highly detailed costume. The figure also includes additional clothing elements to portray Michael Jackson in the “Dirty Diana” music video in 1988.”
And because this is the internet and nothing breaks if I add too much to a post here’s the “Dirty Diana” video. Great guitar, and a reminder that Jackson wasn’t just a strange celebrity. I’m not sure about that guitarist’s hair, though.
