Michael Jackson - S.H.Figuarts - Smooth Criminal (Bandai)Michael Jackson · Bandai

Bandai's S.H.Figuarts line pays tribute to the King of Pop with this Michael Jackson figure depicting his iconic look from the Smooth Criminal music video. The figure features Michael in the striking white suit and fedora that became synonymous with the short film, and the expertly engineered articulation allows collectors to recreate his unforgettable dance poses. The Smooth Criminal segment originated from Michael Jackson's 1988 film Moonwalker, featuring the legendary anti-gravity lean and a narrative centered on Michael confronting a drug lord named Mr. Big to protect children. The song itself became one of Jackson's signature performances, renowned for its choreography and the visually distinctive 1930s gangster aesthetic. Standing approximately 140mm tall and made from ABS, POM, and PVC, the figure includes seven interchangeable hand parts, interchangeable facial expression parts, a removable hat, leg parts for a special shadow-shaped display stand, and an interchangeable upper body part for recreating the famous "this is it" pose. Priced at 4,500 JPY under product code 4543112831521, this release exemplifies the S.H.Figuarts philosophy of combining advanced modeling, movement, and coloring techniques.
