Mike and Mike

My two Michael Jordan playscale figures were purchased as heads only, now placed on action figure bodies.  HeadPlay and Cian are the makers.  Seen here on the blog before in other posts, they return today in celebration of Jordan's birthday.  He was born on February 17, 1963 in Brooklyn, New York.
 
The Cian figure (on the right) is not a portrait of the now retired professional basketball player.  The one by HeadPlay on the left  unmistakably represents MJ. 

Read more about the real MJ here.

  1. Very nice! I really like the one with the mustache.
    Where did you order him?

    1. I believe I purchased the one that looks like MJ (the one with the mustache) on eBay... I think. He's been here over a year, probably two, so I really don't remember.

    2. I just checked, GG. I ordered the head from KG Hobby Toys and Models. They are currently sold out now, however.

  2. I have the Cian head and didn't know it was MJ. Thanks for the I.D. I guess that is how much he looks like MJ.

    1. I know, Ms. Leo. I don't now who Cian modeled their MJ head after, but it couldn't have possibly been Michael Jordan. He is a good looking man, just not Mike.

  3. Interesting! How funny about the lack of resemblance on the Cian head.

  4. I love my MJ head mold. I see you broke down and put them in very nice suits.

    1. Hi Vanessa,

      I just redressed the real-looking MJ yesterday in a suit that I have had on hand for over a year. The other one has been dressed in a suit since May of 2012 I didn't realize they both had been here as long.
