1st or 2nd Proto Michael Jackson thriller head?

[Shai]

Weak how? I do like the original head because it looks spot on but this one does as well.

Weak as in FAIL.



Nothing on that sculpt screams Thriller.

 

[Vincent Shaw]

normal all the way

 

[Valfar]

For a rediculously over priced figure we should atleast get this look as well..

Smiling head looks off because there is a hint of Asian likeness in there somewhere...i can't explain it...if they added more eyeliner to the smiling head it would look better lol.

He looks like that while eating popcorn though...
Maybe if they added yellow eyes!!

1st head looks better imo.

 

[Kuzeh]

I just thought of something...
Didn't the original ad said available on Japan only?...
What if the new sculpt is the international version and the other one is a Japanese exclusive??... !!
That would suck balls though...

Popcorn? There was no popcorn in the street dance scene... the Iconic Scene from the Short. The Smile sculpt is inappropriate here.

Second one with smile, looks more like him. We get two entirely different looks this way. Remember, we already have a serious intense look for the Billy Jean.

Hot Toys, keep what you have. It's awesome!

Makes no sense to pose a smiling face Thriller fig in a street dance pose when he didn't smile. It's just wrong for the moment.

He was smiling for the most part along the street from the Movie Theater to the Cemetery...
I agree the serious face looks better, but he did smile quite a bit in the video...

 

[Valfar]

Still for the price, he should have came with a base,a few tombstones on it and arms busting out of the ground, maybe throw in a scaled bag of popcorn lol.

Wasn't part of the street dance Scene. Most will want to pose him in a dance pose. Arms up, out, whatever. Not walking with Ola... it just doesn't work here, the smiling sculpt is more appropriate for a "Rock with You" expression or something like that...

That's my opinion dude, and you won't be changing it.

First head's the best! (man, did that sound awkward?)

 

[ProgMatinee]

not only is it a silly expression, but the smiling head loses a lot of the likeness IMO.

Like I said in the other thread. For the vast majority of the video before he turns into a zombie he was smirking so it makes much more sense to have it with the smirk, especially since the majority of his dancing was done as a zombie and can be posed dancing with that head. The smirk face also is much more accurate to the cover of the album, so I'm happy for the change.

 

[ProgMatinee]

except now he doesn't really look like Michael, more like a philipino mj impersonator.

Thank you and this looks more like Jackson from that time and era. Please Hot Toys keep the 2nd sculpt and paint apps. Like this Jackson more.

Actually he looks more like early 80's Jackson.
