aaahh, cool, thanks for posting....i always wished these were made in a six or 12 inch scale to put in my room; i'd keep one as the statue, and paint one to look life-like, lol.
 
The statue now has a memorial-plaquette....really lovely:

Let me give you a little HIStory on the HIStory statue.
The truth about the statue is that the guy who owns this McDonalds bought it at auction back in1996 and Michael gave all the money to the Ronald McDonald charities and it has been there ever since.
I have been very lucky to visit the statue on several ocassions so if anyone would like to visit it please PM me and I will give you directions on how to get there because it is really hard to find as it is located in a McDonalds which is right next to a freeway which is just outside of a town called best.
When I first went it took me more then 2 hours to find it.

To The Bronx-- I took pics of the back too :naughty: and IMO they have done a very,very good job :naughty:

Well, I don't know how good they are, but there are a couple on e-bay:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Michael-Jacks...tem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cad3fb828

height 15cms for 18usd
and
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Michael-Jacks...usic_Music_Memorabilia_LE&hash=item415175203e

................but I dont know whether either or both (or neither!) are official.

heigth 26cms for 105 gbp...seems bit of a price difference!

Thanks for posting the pictures!!! They looks amazing!!
 
it's good to know that the statue has been there since 1995/6 til now and hopefully forever. i would be sad if they remove the statue during the 2003 case...just like what they did to the auditorium at his elementary school.

anyone who knows the story on the statue during the 2003 case? is it has the same fate like the auditorium?
