Michael Jackson's Arcade Games and Toy Collection Goes to Auction
Where does he get such wonderful toys? He sure likes playing with joysticks!

Each person who bids on any of that stuff is messed up.

Jackson's Wiki page shows that he has filed a lawsuit in order to stop the auction.
Also, I noticed that he plans to do 10 concerts in London this summer that will earn him 50 million Pounds... wow!

Ya I heard he was broke.. so this made sense, but I think the concerts will set him up for a while.

I'd buy the bubble hockey table. The nerd in me would probably take a second look at the Start Trek pinball machine too.

The only thing better than owning the elephant man's bones?
Owning the creepy child based stuff of the man who owns the elephant man's bones.
Seriously though, I could use that bubble hockey game.

-I like the Simpsons "Viper" gocart.
-I'd take the Ms. Pacman/Galaga table game if it was given to me.
-Why does the life sized doll of Shirley Temple look like Kirsten Dunst?
-Would definately sanitize any of the "Bucking Bronco" horsies.

Haha I have dibs on the Xmen game, the Royal Rumble game, and Mortal Kombat!!
All favorites from my childhood.
Haha looks like it would have been fun to be a kid as his place, minus all that molesting stuff....

Fitting that he's got a 'Dark Stalkers' game but I bet he wished he could pick up a 'Light Stalkers' game since he prefers light to dark.

Well, since nobody's said it.... What do you think his favourite was?
I'm guessing the Virtual Boy...

The winning bidder should wear gloves when playing any of the machines. That's all I gotta say.

So we're criticizing him for owning 'child like stuff,' when we would all kill to have those arcade games and pinball machines?
I'll be 45 and I'll still want that Crazy Taxi - High Roller machine. Nice!

The difference is that we'd want those things to play. He gets those things because he wants to "play" with those who play them.

I still don't believe he molested those kids. Honestly.
I think the guy is a Grade AAA weirdo, but I don't think he is a child molester.
