Yeah, I enjoyed a lot of his stuff around Thriller, but it's very difficult not to crack a few jokes.

I was not very fond of him recently, but sad indeed. Kinda weird as I was looking through his all his stuff that is to be auctioned off last night. I assume the money made off of this will go to his debts? Not really sure how that works.....

Check out the 4th catalog though. A very impressive arcade and video game collection he had.

MTV just changed their broadcast from crappy reality shows to MJ's videos which is nice considering the man was a huge boost to the network in it's infancy.

MJ's music will always be with us. I think that you'll find his body quite biodegradable.
He was making a joke dude. MJ is 50% plastic.

Damn dude, he had some nice pinball machines.

HAH, REVOLUTION X! AND WAR GODS!

Also Darkstalkers, X-Men(6-player...oh sweet merciful God I want it), Simpsons arcade cab(must have been a big Simpsons fan), Super Street Fighter II, Lethal Enforcers, Guitar Freaks, store displays for the N64, 3DO, Virtual Boy, Super Nintendo, Dreamcast, and PlayStation. Dig Dug, Soul Calibur, Donkey Kong, Crystal Castles, Sunset Riders, Ms. Pac-Man, Mortal Kombat, MVS 4-slotter, Marvel Vs. Capcom. He had taste.

And a Sega R-360. God damn.

All this, and the car from Driving Miss Daisy.

Lot 783 is the 4-slotter...$100-$150 they're asking. Anybody want Jackson's Neo Geo?

There is no chance in hell that is going for anything less than $10,000. Call it the MJ Tax.

Heck yea I saw that Neo Geo cab, but I think that price is for an opening bid. Im sure since it was MJ's and now he is dead it will go for thousands lol. Other things he owned confuse me though. 1988 Ford Bronco?

EDIT: Oops, beat me Niode.
