An action figure of Michael Jackson as he appeared in his iconic "Thriller" video is coming – with an interchangeable zombie head.
Japanese toy company Hot Toys has released photos of a high quality 12-inch figure that depicts Jackson in 1983. In addition to the human and zombie Jackson heads, the figure comes with two sets of costumes, consisting of the original red leather jacket and zombie version of the jacket.
The figure also comes with an extra set of socks and shoes, as well as five sets of interchangeable hands and a posing hand.
The Jackson figure will be released later this year, and the price is yet to be determined. The imported figure will likely run in the $100 to $150 price range.
There is no word yet on which US company would import the figure.
Prior Hot Toys releases -- which have included Marvel and DC comics and movie superheroes -- have been distributed through such companies as Sideshow Collectibles and DC Direct, respectively.
Fans worldwide continue to mourn the King of Pop, who died June 25. An autopsy report of Jackson is expected in as little as two weeks.
