Hot Toys 1/6 Icon-M series, Leslie Cheung collectible

I'm not sure how many fans of Leslie are on here but I am glad to see this being made and didn't really expect it

RIP

For those who aren't familiar with Leslie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie_Cheung

Okay now I have a little more faith in Hot Toys licenses.

Leslie Cheung sang the theme for "A Better Tomorrow" a movie classic from Hong Kong also starring Chow Yun Fat and Ti Lung

He was also in several hit movies and cult classics in the hey day
A Better Tomorrow (1986),
A Better Tomorrow II (1987),
A Chinese Ghost Story (1987),
Days of Being Wild (1991),
Farewell My Concubine (1993),

Most if not all of the movies on this list are already subbed/dubbed by American movie distributors and you might even be able to YouTube a few of these to watch.

A really popular figure of music in Asia. He suicided from depression. In the time that he died, two other iconic musical figures also passed away from cancer, namely Roman Tam and Anita Mui. All three of them have deep roots in Chinese music.

Hot Toys being from Hong Kong, is pretty good to pay some homage to their country in this form.

Sooooo... Asia exclusive figure. Meh..

I just read the wikipedia entry....damn, how depressing!

This will be a hot seller.. no doubt.

Everybody knows Leslie Cochran.

Meh, not figure worthy.

I woulda rather seen Leslie Nielson

A Naked Gun figure would be a do want.
