Upper Deck Michael Jordan

Had to get it, big Jordan fan. Player and sneaks. Everything is perfect on this figure - except the face. The first 2 releases, and the upcoming "Gatorade Dunk" - free throw line version, all the faces are jacked. But - Good if you have it across the room, and dont look at it closely.

That's pretty darn sweet. And I'm no MJ fan.

holy crap. this is new stuff?

i hope they do one with mike practicing his free throws with a sound chip that goes 'thats my mom'.

that and a 2 pack with russell with clutch pushoff action feature.

edit: holy crap the face is terrible.

Indeed. I remember getting these in at our store a few weeks back and thinking "wtf, it doesn't even look like him".

pretty cool but why couldn't it be Magic? Showtime anybody?

I think there are Magic and Bird classic figures out now by someone actually.

A great tribute to the best B-Baller ever!

They should have made his face with his tongue sticking out!

THAT is cool.

Yes, and yes, it is terrible. Gorgeous sculpt otherwise, in a really nice window display box, but, the face stopped me.

I looks amazing, until you see that face...

Oh, man that would be awesome, provided the faces are better. Have to hunt them down.

SPAWN.COM >> TOYS >> BASKETBALL >> NBA LEGENDS 2 >> MAGIC JOHNSON

SPAWN.COM >> TOYS >> BASKETBALL >> NBA LEGENDS 1 >> L. BIRD

And a classic case:

Not so great either actually.

for those not in the know, jordan's licensing is a bit shady in that a buncha prominent brands missed out on it. for instance, ea's nba live franchise was missing MJ for the longest time and would have this random guy playing no. 24 but it was basically mike. i think thats why we dont get MJ under the mcfarlane line.
