Jackson dolls to hit markets soon

Late pop singer Michael Jackson's estate has reportedly come up with a new way to cash in on the pop icon's legacy! They are now planning an exclusive merchandising deal for a Michael Jackson' line of products, including toys.

The 'Thriller' singer's estate has applied to create merchandising deals for products such as stuffed toys, dolls and clothes, reports said. The deal will see traditional merchandise such as T-shirts and calendars produced as well as toys that play the singer's music.

The estate has gone into the venture with AEG Live, the promoters behind his planned comeback concerts in London and Bravado International Group Merchandising Services. AEG has already signed a USD 60 million deal with Columbia pictures to create a full-length feature on the last days of the icon using his rehearsal footage.
