Hot Toys' "Mycon" series now includes a Passion Tour version of Leslie Cheung, who remains an eternal star even 10 years after his sudden death. Born in 1956, Leslie Cheung began his career as an idol in Hong Kong and began acting in 1982. He appeared in numerous masterpieces such as "A Better Tomorrow," "A Chinese Ghost Story," and "Happy Together," gaining high international acclaim as an actor. In his later years, he dedicated himself to singing, constantly challenging himself with new things and striving to entertain people. However, on April 1, 2003, at the height of his popularity, he jumped from a luxury hotel in Hong Kong, ending his 47-year life. Even now, 10 years later, he remains an eternal superstar, admired by fans all over the world. Standing approximately 30 centimeters tall and featuring over 30 points of articulation, this figure recreates Leslie Cheung's appearance at the "Passion Tour" concert held in Hong Kong in 2000, as part of the 10th anniversary project, "Ten Years of Continuous Favor: MISS YOU MUCH LESLIE." The head, sculpted with such realism that you can almost hear him breathing, has been hand-painted to reproduce wrinkles and skin texture, and the lustrous long hair that was so striking at the concert has been recreated using rooted hair. The costume, including the bronze-colored suit designed by Jean-Paul Gaultier that he wore when he sang his hit song "Big Hot," is meticulously crafted down to the smallest detail. A microphone stand and interchangeable hand parts are included to recreate a scene from the concert, allowing you to create various scenes. Furthermore, a special base with a stage-like lighting function and a backboard are included, making this a luxurious set that will bring tears of joy to fans.
