McFarlane Toys has announced a partnership with Activision to produce action figures from the video game franchise, Guitar Hero. The first line is expected to hit store shelves this fall.

“We have very recently begun creating toys based on video games,” says McFarlane Toys CEO Todd McFarlane. “With Activision, we get to work on arguably one of the biggest video game franchises out there, and capitalize on the wide-ranging demographic that encompasses this game.”

Represented in the first line of action figures are four of the Guitar Hero game’s most popular characters; Johhny Napalm, Axel Steel, Lars Umlaut and God of Rock. Each figure has 15-18 moving parts and an unique guitar is included with each character that is removable and interchangeable with the other figures. Each figure also comes with a sculpted Guitar Hero logo base.

No Judy Nails or Grim Ripper? For shame.
