Cliff Burton Immortalized as Action Figure

Castro Valley native and legendary Metallica bassist Cliff Burton is now an action figure that you can own. San Francisco-based toy company Super7 announced the special edition figurine earlier this month noting that Burton's "legacy continues to live on as an icon of individuality." Nicknamed, "The Major Rager,” Burton's life ended suddenly on September 27, 1986, in a tour bus accident in Sweden. His figure stands 3.75-inches tall and his bass guitar and a hammer to “kill them all”! A collaboration with the Burton Family, proceeds from this figure will benefit the Cliff Burton Music Scholarship Fund.
