MJ (short for Michael Jackson) still remained very popular in Japan, even after he became known as Wacko Jacko. He held his History concert in Tokyo several years ago and adoring fans were still fainting at the shrill of a high note. But will they faint for a vinyl Michael? Probably not, but it’s still cool to see him as an action figure. He comes in two versions with removable masks: A werewolf and a zombie, both a la ""Thriller".
You probably can’t pose him like you do with GI Joe figurines, but watching the videos makes the toy look fun. The entire time, the kids are asking, “Where’s Michael?!….oh there he is!” The doll is a whopping $58 in Japan, which I suppose doesn’t sound as bad in yen. I can totally imagine all kinds of MJ collectors buying it for their showcase.
