Even now, almost 10 years later, he remains an eternal superstar, admired by fans around the world. This figure, standing approximately 30 centimeters tall and featuring over 30 points of articulation, was created in a limited edition of 3000 worldwide for the 10th anniversary memorial event, "MISS YOU MUCH LESLIE," held in Hong Kong. The head, sculpted with such realism that you can almost hear him breathing, was specially authorized by his former manager, Florence Chan, and each one is hand-painted to recreate wrinkles, skin texture, and hairstyle. The tuxedo, reminiscent of the 1994 film "He's a Woman, She's a Man," is meticulously crafted down to the smallest detail. It comes with a microphone stand to recreate a scene from a live performance and interchangeable hand parts, allowing you to recreate various scenes. Furthermore, in honor of his dream to become a film director, it includes a director's chair with his signature on the backrest—a detail that will bring tears to the eyes of fans.
