Blitzway: Black Label - Michael Jackson

[ironmann]

I had a chance to order a standard one from Amazon a couple of days ago. The standard one looks good enough for me. I'm so happy with the great looking MJ statue.

Head up, regular edition available on Amazon now.

I just received the MJ from Amazon today. It's not the black-level version, but wow! It looks exactly like him. I'm so happy with it!

Until I unboxed the statue, totally forgot the Black Label includes both the standard straps and 18k gold plated straps - I was comparing the two side-by-side and could not tell the difference or if the gold plated was superior, could of fooled me.

Love the statue but the base was much lighter than I anticipated, feels plastic.

Ear piece and mic was a pain to put on - it wouldn’t set properly around the left ear and I was paranoid about screwing up the rooted hair.

Meanwhile in the UK...

RADIO SILENCE (Collectibles Direct). No sign of this showing up this year. Amazing how Amazon had it in stock and shipped so fast, lesson learned.

I was surprised Amazon had this in stock, usually they don’t carry higher end collectibles.

Amazon is incredibly unreliable, at least for PO. They’ve cancelled so many collectible items on me, some I’ve had on PO since day 1.

There was the 1:6 Gentle Giant New Hope Leia, Super 7 figures, etc.

This is true re: them cancelling orders. Also had this in the past and I guess I'd hate missing out ENTIRELY on this.

Just seems to be taking an awfully long time for UK resellers to get any stock from Blitzway given how long this has been 'out'.

I assume this looks MUCH better in person than in photos? the photography on Blitzway's site looks far better than what I've seen in-hand.
