News: Hot Toys previews Leslie Cheung (Miss You Much Leslie - Passion Tour Version) 1/6 scale figurine


Since Hot Toys is a Hong Kong company, it is not surprising that they have released quite a few popular Hong Kong artists, singers and actors. Of course Leslie is quite a big star back in the 80s and 90s and
according to source, he was voted the third "Most Iconic Musicians of All Time". Well I wouldn't say I liked all his song but his most popular one, 追 is one of my favorite.








"Time flies by as this year marks the 10th anniversary of the legendary singer and actor Leslie Cheung’s departure from us.

In year 2000 during his iconic Passion Tour concert, Leslie has donned a unique look with straight long hair and sparkly bronze colored suit to perform his hit song – Passion, this one-of-a-kind look has left a deep impression in the heart of all of Leslie’s fans.

To commemorate the iconic star, Hot Toys is presenting the new 1/6th scale Leslie Cheung Collectible Figure (Miss You Much Leslie - Passion Tour Version).
