Here’s the press pics of the Hot Toys DX MJ that was announced yesterday. My wallet can’t keep up with my Hot Toys addiction, so I am passing on this – but with PERS, this figure adds a level of lifelike quality that surpasses the excellent Michael Jackson Thriller version that’s currently available.
