As we were telling your before, Michael Jackson fans the world over are looking for ways to immortalise the singer. The latest tribute comes from a company called Hot Toys as it launches a 1/6th scale collectoble figure of the star. This MJ doll is reminiscent of his look in the famous record-breaking Thriller music video of 1983.

Not just that, the toymaker has ensured that the horror theme from the video is maintained in the toy as well. Each collectible figure comes with 2 interchangeable heads, one of MJs and the othet of a zombie, plus there are the 2 different costumes (including the one in red that we see Jackson wearing in the video) that you can dress up the doll in. The doll is brown like MJ’s orginal skin color, which is a good thing because kids today think that the singer was always that horrfying shade of white.

Five sets of interchangeable hands along with a posing right hand have been included in the package. Expected to rake in a lot of moolah from Jacko die-hards, the doll is limited for sale in Japan and Hong Kong only unless they open a shipping option too. By the way, do you have any friends in Japan who owe you a favour!?

A little 5 year old girl and a young lady quarreling over a doll could well have been a reality if at all the doll in question here were affordable! Little girls feel incomplete without their dolls just like every damsel’s heart races for a diamond. And if a doll is adorned with Diamonds, a girl’s best friend, this doll could be the new best friend of a girl.
Tomy Toys, a toy company from Japan has unveiled a diamond doll. The specially produced doll with the name “Licca–chan” comes clad in a tiara and gown studded with 881 diamonds, a total of 51.4 karat. This extravagant doll flaunts a price tag of $935,000! This diamond doll is part of an exhibition of “Girlish Culture” geared toward what they describe as, “happy adult by fashion.”

How real the need for blinged toys is even as you grow older this exhibit might try to clarify but it can assuredly find a place in a museum for everyone to admire. Start devising an explanation for your darling daughter if she sights this doll here and wishes to have for herself!
