What you trying to say?

Just doing a comparison

There's something missing.....the eyes.....I think it's that "warmness" that Michael had in his eyes

plus the baby hair ain't correct

The ones on the Bravado site are the Playmates action figures (which I and many people feel are inferior in terms of detail )

and the $200 are the Hot Toys action figures. the Beat It one isn't available but they also have Dirty Diana, Billie Jean (HIStory Tour Edition), and Thriller

Michael's drawing of Martin Luther King Jr.

I have that. Have had it for years. It's incredible how it's now worth $1500. Couldn't pay me any amount to sell any of my MJ collectibles though.

lawd ha mercy

The Ts, who are close to the children, especially Terrell, according to sources, have pressured the children to say the vocals on the tracks are not those of their father. Initially, Prince Jackson, 13, had vouched for the recordings. But recently, an email was sent to the estate’s executors from Paris, 11, claiming the voice belongs to an impostor. The only problem, sources say, is that the email was time stamped while Paris was in school.

This is the problem when families just get too big and they aren't united as a unit.

Big families get corrupt really quickly.

There is reason why MJ distanced himself from them...

Sad but true...

See, I am not sure if I care about a tribute concerts. I mean with current artists.... Back then, when there was a Freddie Mercury concert with stars like George MIchael, Lisa Stansfield and others...that was something else..

But SEE, Queen had thought it out what they were going to do with a tribute to Freddie beforehand. They also dedicated the concert to saving lives affected with HIV so whatever proceeds went into that concert not only preserve the memory of Freddie but also went to AIDS prevention foundations. The Jacksons could donate any proceeds of a tribute concert to Michael's favorite children's organizations or whatever but they haven't done what Queen did. Plus I doubt because of egos they would ever reunite to perform for their brother. That family acts a little nutso sometimes I don't trust many of them.

The Jackson egos were quite evident in the reality series they did. Fuck diva dom, if they loved Mike so much why can't they do something worthwhile on his behalf.

I completely agree and that why it frustrates me when Katherine keeps asking for

more money. The Estate is doing their job and she just wants to support her greedy

and lazy kids. They can get jobs. They act like they are too good to work. Newsflash:

The last Jacksons hit was twenty years ago. Other recording artists who have lost fame

have had to get REAL jobs too. It's called life.

And while I agree with you completely, I know some fans are quick to say,

"Michael loved his family." But the truth is: He did love them but he realized,

it was better to keep family and business separate. He was so smart.

Agree,

That money belongs Prince, Paris and Blanket

When they come of age, if they wanna throw it down the drain, so be it.

But it isn't for the Jackson Clan to go hog wild with it.

Court rejects Michael Jackson father's appeal

(AP) – 3 hours ago

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A California appeals court rejected a bid Tuesday by Michael Jackson's father to challenge the administration of his son's lucrative estate.

A three-justice panel of the California Second District Court of Appeal unanimously affirmed a probate judge's ruling that Joe Jackson didn't have standing to intervene in his son's estate.

A copy of the opinion was not immediately available.

Despite being excluded from his son's 2002 will, Joe Jackson had been seeking to have some control over financial affairs.

Estate attorney Howard Weitzman said he was pleased the court affirmed the pop star's wishes to make John Branca and John McClain executors of his will.

"We hope this decision finally puts this issue to rest," Weitzman said.

Brian Oxman, Joe Jackson's attorney, said the father should have some say in post-death affairs involving his son.

"This is not right," Oxman said of Tuesday's ruling.

The appeals court heard arguments in the estate case on Oct. 6. The panel questioned several steps taken by Joe Jackson in the case, including withdrawing his request for a monthly stipend.

The panel also questioned why Oxman didn't mention during a lengthy hearing in November that he might file a wrongful death lawsuit. Last June, Joe Jackson sued Dr. Conrad Murray, the physician charged with involuntary manslaughter in Michael Jackson's death.

Michael Jackson's estate has earned tens of millions of dollars since the singer's death in June 2009 at age 50 in Los Angeles.

That's not good when your own family feels that you owe them something, especially the father, which is notorious.

OK, I'm just gonna say this and move on:

THIS FAMILY IS FUCKED UP!

I still can't fully wrap my head around MJ being dead.

It feels weird to refer to him, in this way that is like, "If he was here..."

What blows me away is that it is exactly the contrary: it's Joe who owes Michael EVERYTHING (I'll repeat it: E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G). And he knows it. But he acts as if Michael owed him as a way to make people think he was the reason MJ achieved what he achieved. It's a way for Joe to have glory by taking credit off of his son despite the fact that he knows full well that it was Michael who gave him everything while he gave NOTHING other than spiritual misery. It's also a way for Joe to get control of Michael: "You only became what you became because of me, so give me money." and, his son, wanting to feel loved believed it.

Can we have an org party when Joe dies? One less psycopath on Earth!

I won't like celebrate but I'll be like "well he'll get punishment by the hands of God for what he did." I'm sure God's knocking Marvin Gay, Sr. for all the damage he conflicted on his son too.

Both Joe and Katherine are equally wicked. One is overt and one is covert.

Got the Hot Toys Thriller and Bad figures paid £150 each or thereabouts, Smooth Criminal is due out soon and the Beat It Version will be mine too.

Hot Toys rock. I've got a few from various lines. The pictures don't do them justice.

Glad to hear it. I've been umming and ahhhing about them for a while. I really want the Billie Jean (History Tour) one. And a Smooth Criminal One would be cool too.

Where did you buy yours from?

What other lines do you have to give us a clue of what the quality is like.

i picked that up in Tesco's about a decade ago for 14.99. That seller is taking the piss. You can pick it up for about £50-£70 on Ebay easy. Never press his belly-button, Black Or White can't be stopped, it plays the whole song!
