I will not be purchasing this 70s leather-clad version of Freddie, because I agree with you kids: it's awful! The Magic Tour/yellow jacket Freddie figure, however, looks just like him. It's really quite freakish, the similarity. I got the 18 inch Freddie figure for Christmas (the first thing I said to my mom was, "when I was little, I used to pray that they'd make a Freddie Mercury figure") and was thoroughly impressed. It's so detailed, even Freddie's ever-present 5 o'clock shadow is detailed down his jaw-line. The moustache, the hair - all right on. This new one, though? What were the folks at Necca thinking? It's 1/3 Freddie, 1/3 John Travolta and 1/3 Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Oh my. That is quite possibly the most horrifying thing I've ever seen. Wow. That's really going to give me nightmares.

In one of the pictures, his head looks too small... At least, much smaller compared to the photograph of him - or maybe it's just the angle, I can't tell.
In other news, my dad's moving so all my stuff from there is over here and I discovered all my old Barbie dolls !
Frankly, I think Barbie is a little disturbing to look at all unclothed.
Kinda off topic...
...but does anyone have a version of that leather and sunglasses pic without "muster" on it, and if so, would you mind posting a link?
Pretty Please?

That figure looks like more "Chiquito" Bossio (Lanus' goalkeeper, from the Argentinian 1st division football league) than Freddie indeed.
