[Playmates] MICHAEL JACKSON 10" Collector Figures

The first product details have been revealed from Playmates Toys who earlier this year signed a deal with Bravado, the world's leading global music merchandising company, to create collectibles based on the most successful entertainer of all time, Michael Jackson.

Michael's incomparable style comes to life as Playmates rolls out a new 10" scale collectible figure line which captures his likeness and the fashions which have become legendary. The first 10" style will be Billie Jean which captures the bold and flashy outfit worn in his music video. The second 10" collectible is Thrillerfeaturing the iconic red with black trim outfit from the popular short film.

These two styles will launch in 2010 followed up with additional styles shortly after.

Fans of the late Michael Jackson will want to collect the Michael Jackson Collector's Figures as the memorable musician is brought to life as the "Beat It MJ" or the "First Moonwalk Michael." Each 10-inch collectible replica, with a Jackson Estate-approved likeness of the iconic singer, has 37 points of articulation and replica fabric clothing, and comes with a figure stand, a unique base, and collectible diorama packaging.

Look for these to hit stores by April 2011.
