ComingSoon is debuting an exclusive look at Super7‘s all-new The Notorious B.I.G. Deluxe Figure, based on the iconic New York rapper. The new figure is inspired by The Notorious B.I.G., also known as Biggie Smalls or Biggie. The rapper is widely considered one of the greatest rappers of all time, and one of the biggest forces in hip hop throughout the 1990s, prior to his untimely passing in 1997. The figure is available to preorder now on Super7’s website, and retails for $35.
What comes with the Notorious B.I.G. figure?
The figure itself is 7″ scale, and features an intricate sculpt and premium paint detailing. The figure comes packaged in a classic blister card packaging, and also includes sunglasses, microphones, and gold chain accessories.
Known for his laidback delivery, Biggie Smalls — real name Christopher Wallace — was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York City, and signed to Sean “Puffy” Combs’s Bad Boy Records when it launched in 1993. Throughout his career, Smalls released two albums, 1994’s Ready to Die and 1997’s Life After Death, both of which became critically acclaimed upon their release.
The Notorious B.I.G. is best known for his hit songs “Juicy,” “Big Poppa,” “Hypnotize,” and “Mo Money Mo Problems.” The artist was also well-known for the overarching East Coast-West Coact hip hop feud, which would eventually result in the deaths of both The Notorious B.I.G. and California rapper Tupac Shakur.
B.I.G.’s figure joins a series of musician figures that Super7 has honored with action figures. Previous figures include iconic rap artist KRS-One, AC/DC’s Bon Scott, and even a smaller version of ODB under their ReAction figures banner, among others.
