Hot Toys MIS10 - Michael Jackson (Beat It version) spec and pics

[matthijst]

Most sellers offer for a bit under the MSRP and so it seems to me that it's not too unlikely that if does end up being stocked by normal retailers it'll be US $200 or a little under. Even if it does sell out though, I have a hard time imagining the price is going to stay at a constant $400 and upwards. I will make the largely uneducated guess that prices they're asking now are only going to drop, not rise.
They might not want to go through the trouble of shipping internationally. It can be a bother shipping it and even more of a bother if a problem later arises, it can be a headache many like to avoid.

Sure the prices will drop, and indeed, probably a bit below MSRP.
I just though that the comment about "anything above $200, one day after release, it too much" was a bit strange: why in the world would anyone sell it for below MSRP now when they can still make some extra money...

Japanese people don't speak a lot of English, so I think it's also too much of a hassle for them to try and figure what it is your asking

I was speaking from the practical sense that a regular figure with no accessories really isnt worth anything above $200, regardless of how exclusive it is.
Things are only worth as much as people will pay for them, and $200 is my limit for this one.

Ah sorry, misread your comment...


Anyone know if the shoulderpads on the jacket are gold?
They look kinda yellowish, i thought the real jacket had a more silver color?

He said MSRP. That means if you bought it in person at the Expo itself.

Ah...

Wtf is wrong with the sculpt? This is like the crappy likeness they gave us for the thriller release. Best likeness so far would be mj dx bad. What's up with yulli lately, her sculpt is looking like crap

 

[Cheungkinmen]

I WANT this figure, damn you hot toys for making it an exclusive

I agree. It looks better in the more realistic lighting here than in the prototype pics, IMO.

Damn, I wish HT would have shoe-horned a post-Thriller MJ in as the exclusive. Sucks for me.

Here's to hoping folks pass since the MJ death hype has passed on a bit, and the figure, frankly, looks a bit boring.

That MJ figure looks pretty awesome. Very cool pics.

According to estimates rates in their site, about $45.00-$50.00 usd. not bad... $300.00 for this figure seems within reason, all things considered...

Only if this was it:
