Well, Michael Jackson did want to be Peter Pan, and at the same time was probably a robot (Moonwalker, anyone?), so I don't see the issue.

Good one

Btw, just got mine! He looks pretty awesome on hand

looking at that 5 cosbabies, is telling us that we already got 2, and we can expect 3 more MJs (black or white, history tour, smooth criminal version) :chew

Just finished putting the zombie mj!

Damn, it took almost half an hour to put him up, as the head's ball joint of the black TT nor the normal MJ just won't come off.

Since I didn't have any pliers (couldn't bother searching for it), I ended up using scissors to. plug the rubber part of the black TT's head, and nail clippers to cut the edges of it that finally I managed to bite and separate the rubber plug and the ball joint off!

Anyways, pants of the zombie fits TIGHTER than normal MJ, so I had to swap those heads again, but its much easier this time, as I need the looser pants for zombie, as I'm posing him that crouch/dancing pose.

That case came with the 1/2 bust. Is the first run of the Toynami 1:2 heads that i bought many years ago.

But the cosbabies are not 5, they are 8 figures.

Seeing those problems i think is better to buy a true type body to avoid change heads.

They are called Cosbabies, and you probably won't find them less than $15-20 each anywhere at this point. Ebay is probably the best bet, though.

There's a complete set of 8 now.
Was made for the HK Doll Show or something.
Ebay...

Looks very very impressive. Sure it can always look better and more accurate, but this is damn nicely done.

Heating it up with a hairdryer will soften the plastic enough to pop it off easily. When it cools down, it'll go right back to the normal stiffness.

Hideous, you are a lucky guy!!! The second pic with the camera flash is really impresive. I think it looks better than we can imagine

Re: HT- M ICON- MIS09- Michael Jackson (Thriller version)-Link to buy from SS in 1st

Thanks guys! He looks pretty awesome! I'm liking the zombie sculpt more though

I did try using the hair dryers, just that the head plug is connected in a way that its hard to plug em off, if you don't use a plier.

Me personally couldn't be bothered with finding one as I was pretty anxious bout putting the zombie head, so I just started to cut em off

My local store got their shipment of MJ in today. I got to check it out for a while and what I can tell you is it looks fantastic.

The tailoring and fit for both set of clothes are top notch. It fit's the figure really naturally.

What's amazing is the material they used for the jacket. It has the PVC-ish shine that the real jacket has that wasn't portrayed well in the proto pic.

As for the head sculpt, the skin tone paint job is amazing and so far none of the pics I have seen here managed to capture that. This is really one figure that you must have in hand to appreciate the nuance and detail.

As for the likeness I am just going to say that anyone will be able to tell that it's MJ. No doubt about that.

I actually have one pre-ordered and can actually collect today but I am serious short on funds and will probably only be able to collect next week or end of the month.

I will be sure to post a detail breakdown and review when I get mine.
