Michael Jackson Figures & Dolls in Demand

The Michael Jackson toy figures and dolls from the 1980's are the hottest thing going right now! I am truly amazed that supply is keeping up with demand for these doll figures! A good many of these collectible figures are in terrific shape, if not still in the boxes! Of course, most are found on eBay. That's probably your best bet for the best deal and finding the particular Michael Jackson doll you want for your collection.

I cannot remember if these dolls were more for kids or if adults bought them too back in the 80's. At any rate, they are great pieces of memorabilia to have today. Like all the other collectible vintage Michael Jackson merchandise for sale lately, it's coming from people who are cleaning out their garages and attics in search of this stuff. They are motivated to selling knowing they will get a few bucks for almost anything MJ related.

Vintage Figures 80's

But the real winners are us, the collectors. While most of this stuff is a little over priced, it's not ridiculous and being able to find whatever I want has got me drooling on a daily basis! Doll, figures and statues that were not anywhere to be found over the past couple years are easily found now, and that's well worth a little bit of price inflation.

This truly is the best time ever to buy these figures of Michael Jackson vintage dolls. In a few short months, possibly sooner, this vintage merchandise will be in very limited supply and replaced with new, commercially motivated items. Most of which will never be very collectible or valuable in my opinion. Yes, there will be some very nice figures and busts coming out, but the true vintage Jackson dolls and action figures from the 80's are irreplaceable.

Michael Jackson Dolls

What's nice about these dolls, especially now so soon after his death, is that they are not fake. There hasn't been enough time to put out the fakes and besides, these dolls are easily discerned. Just look around at pictures and you can tell. All that packaging would have to be faked too and I doubt the frenzy is going to last long enough for that to happen. (for dolls, that is)

If you've been wanting to add to your collection or just want a piece of Michael Jackson memorabilia, consider a toy doll! Find one that you like, one that represents Billie Jean or Thriller for example, and buy it while you can! It will make a nice "King of Pop" keepsake for years to come.

Michael Jackson Collectible Magazines

Have you seen any of the new special edition magazines featuring Michael Jackson? They are starting to come out in groves now! Commemorative Time, Newsweek, People and many others are hitting the stands. These are certainly nice to own but have you noticed the vintage Michael Jackson magazines out there, especially on eBay? Wow! It's like a buffet out there for us Michael Jackson collectors!

I'm lovin' it. People are just cleaning out their old junk draweres, garages etc in search of these old magazines in order to make a few bucks and it's us collectors who are getting the real deals! While it's true that a lot of them are overpriced, it's also true that the selection has never been better. It's never even been close to this and therefore you can get what you want or need for your collection.

I've seen some very rare Jackson Five magazine covers too, from the early 70's which I've never seen before. Even though the 80's were saturated with Michael Jackson headlines and magazines, there were some rare issues and they are being made available. I've also replaced a few of my magazines with ones that were in much better shape.

I've always liked magazines for a collection. They add to the timeline in a way that nothing else can. The pictures inside magazines are generally of very good quality and there's lots of them. The ads represent the time period and there's always dates if not on every page, at least a few and in the ads.

A magazine can be held and looked at and I suppose it's the idea that you can read it that makes me enjoy them so much as part of my Michael Jackson collection. It's really cool when someone sees my display, comments on it and walks over, picks up the magazine and reads it. I think it makes the collection more magical.

There has truly never been a better time to find a Michael Jackson magazine for your collection. Are you taking advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity?
