Amazon says more than 6,000 people have purchased this “King of Pop” T-shirt in the last month alone, while more than a thousand shoppers picked up this sequined glove and fedora set — perhaps to wear to a viewing of the new film ?

One of the most popular pieces of Michael Jackson merch available online right now is the singer’s official line of Funko Pops , the mini vinyl figurines that have become a sought-after collectible for MJ fans and music fans alike.

Each of the MJ figures are inspired by an iconic look from one of his music videos, with the outfits — and video inspiration — spanning the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s. The palm-sized toys also feature a similar hair and makeup look to what the singer was sporting during that time. These are all officially licensed releases.

Here’s a look at some of the best Michael Jackson Funko Pops that you can find online now. You’ll want to hurry though: Amazon says thousands of people are shopping these collectibles right now, so you’ll want to add to your cart while the figurine(s) you like are still in stock.

Funko POP! Rocks: Michael Jackson (Thriller) Collectible Vinyl Figure

$16.99 Buy Now On Amazon

This is one of the most popular MJ Funko Pops, and it pays homage to the iconic red jacket he wore in the “Thriller” music video . Released in 1983, the song became one of Jackson’s biggest hits, while the memorable music video — which featured the singer dancing with zombies — earned a spot in the National Film Registry in 2009.

This vinyl mini figure stands approximately 3.75 inches tall and comes in a numbered box with Jackson’s initial crest on the top.

Funko Pop! Rocks: Michael Jackson (Beat It) Collectible Vinyl Figure

$16.55 Buy Now On Amazon

More than 2,000 people have picked up this “Beat It”-inspired Funko Pop in the last month, according to Amazon. The music video for the 1983 single was filmed on Skid Row in Los Angeles, leading to a more casual, West Coast-inspired look for Jackson.

What we like: This “action figure” is so well-articulated that it even features Jackson’s flinging hand gesture from the video, in which the singer launches into a dance break and tells the gang members in the clip to yes, beat it .

Funko POP! Rocks: Michael Jackson (Billie Jean) Collectible Vinyl Figure

$21.94 Buy Now On Amazon

Jackson dressed it up for the “Billie Jean” music video, and this Funko Pop release features a vinyl figure of the singer in his black suit with a pink shirt, red bow tie and white shoes. This was Jackson looking cool and collected, and the collectible would look equally as cool on your desk or shelf too.

POP Rocks: Michael Jackson (Smooth Criminal) Funko Vinyl Figure

$29.99 Buy Now On Amazon

Who could forget this memorable look in the “Smooth Criminal” music video , which featured Jackson fighting off gangsters in a Depression-era club? Even more memorable: the “lean in” move the artist debuted in the clip, which seemed to defy the laws of gravity.

That MJ “lean” is now immortalized in this Funko Pop release, which comes bundled with a plastic box protector for easy display — and to keep it in pristine condition.

Boxed Vinyl Rocks: Michael Jackson (Rock with You) Glitter Edition

$24.99 Buy Now On Amazon

Jackson lit up the screen in the music video for his 1979 release “Rock With You,” and this Funko Pop figurine finds the singer adorned with a sparkling striped outfit and sparkly silver shoes. He also holds a microphone in his hand. Fittingly, this is part of Funko Pop’s “Glitter Edition” line of toys and figurines.

Funko POP! Rocks: Michael Jackson – (Armor) Collectible Vinyl Figure

$23.00 Buy Now On Amazon

Jackson wore this “armor” outfit on his HIStory World Tour from 1996 to 1997, dazzling crowds around the world with a setlist of hits, movie star sets and custom costumes designed by his longtime personal dressers Dennis Tompkins and Michael Bush. This would ultimately prove to be the final world tour for Jackson, who released one more studio album, Invincible , in 2001, but never hit the road to promote it.

In our opinion, that makes this Funko Pop release even more of a collector’s item, as it shows the King of Pop in the last big performance period of his life.

The new Michael movie isn’t just leading to a surge in merch sales, it also led Jackson to his highest streaming week ever. The music legend’s solo song catalog registered more than 137.5 million on-demand streams for the week of April 24-30 in the United States, according to Luminate, more than doubling his previous career high.
