Prince action figure It seems like everyone has an action figure out these days.
If Prince put out an action figure of himself, would you buy it? I've been wanting one for years! | |

NO. I would REALLY start to worry about him if he put out a friggin' doll... | |

The time for merchandising like action figures was as a tie in with Purple Rain and it's success.
Prince could come with a white cloud guitar and motorbike as optional extra, Bobby Z with drumsticks, Dr Fink with Surgeons mask, Wendy&Lisa and MorrisnJerome could be two for one deals... Brown Mark however talks if you press a button his back so after the film fans actually know what his voice sounds like. | |

That would be very cool, I'd definitely buy 1. They can make 1 4 each era. | |

The Prince action figure/doll would have to come with accessories...

So long as the doll "looks exactly" like him, then I'd buy it. Ohh purple joy oh purple bliss oh purple rapture! REAL MUSIC by REAL MUSICIANS - Prince "I kind of wish there was a reason for Prince to make the site crash more" ~~ Ben |

I'd have to buy one even though I wouldn't know what to do with it. It'd be great if McFarlane Toys made a Prince figure...you know it'd be great. They already made ones for Kiss, Ozzy, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, The Beatles, Ted Nugent, etc, etc. I don't expect them to make a Prince one, but it would definitely be worth the $7 or so. | |

Prince had offers made to him for merchandise marketing, during his mega successful years of 82-87, but turned them all down , feeling like it was not his style. Michael Jackson had put out a doll right around the same time Purple Rain was about to hit theaters, and MJ's doll was corny enough, so Prince did not wanna be in that catagory. He wanted to be a different type of rock star all together... | |

Apparently the MJ dolls were withdrawn when it came out they were a lesser percentage plastic than the man himself. | |

If Mattel made one, I'd probably buy the entire collection... cloud suit, purple rain suit + coat, sign O the times jacket and glasses,... I'd spend days shampooing, blow-drying and curling his hair to a typhoon
and, of course, writing "SLAVE" onto his cheek and wiping it off again | |
