MICHAEL JACKSON - Smooth Criminal - Figure Minix 12cm

This collectable figurine from the famous and contemporary Minix range pays tribute to the King of Pop in one of the most legendary and memorable dance routines in the history of music: Michael Jackson in the world of ‘Smooth Criminal’.

The figurine stands approximately 12 cm tall, a standard size for the collection that is ideal for display on a music lover’s shelf, on a desk or in a collector’s display cabinet. The distinctive concept behind Minix figurines reimagines the biggest stars of pop culture and music through a stylised aesthetic inspired by cartoons or caricatures, characterised by bold geometric lines, large, expressive eyes and simplified facial features that instantly capture the artist’s visual identity. The high-quality plastic sculpture faithfully recreates his memorable appearance from the music video, featuring his 1930s-style white gangster suit, blue shirt, white tie, black armband and his famous matching fedora. The meticulous application of paint highlights the elegance of the outfit and the dancer’s charismatic posture.

This officially licensed collectable is aimed directly at die-hard fans of Michael Jackson’s music, those nostalgic for the great music videos of the 1980s, and collectors of the Minix range. The item is supplied standing upright, in a stable position without the need for an additional base, inside a protective, screen-printed and numbered cardboard display box for the collection.

Released in 1988 on the album *Bad* and featuring prominently in the musical feature film *Moonwalker*, *Smooth Criminal* is one of the most iconic tracks of Michael Jackson’s career, famous for its visual style inspired by Hollywood film noir. The choreography in the music video, set in a 1930s speakeasy (the Club 30’s), has gone down in pop culture history thanks to the introduction of a revolutionary dance move: the “Anti-Gravity Lean”, a 45-degree tilt of the body that defies the laws of gravity. This figurine captures the impeccable aesthetic and fashion style of this legendary performance, allowing fans to celebrate the visual genius, timeless elegance and major cultural impact of the King of Pop.
