BraveWords.com has received the following press release from McFarlane Toys:

Are you ready to rock? Literally?

The McFarlane store at Westgate will be sponsoring a Guitar Hero competition on Tuesday, October 21 from 6pm-8pm, prior to the METALLICA concert at Jobing.com Arena in Glendale, Ariz.

Open to the public, the competition will take place near the fountains adjacent to Jobing.com Arena on the huge video board. So bring your "A game," because thousands will see whether you can tear it up like Slash or Kirk - or if you'll crumble under the pressure of all those eyes on you.

Cool prizes will be given away, including t-shirts, Guitar Hero video games and McFarlane's own Guitar Hero action figures.

McFarlane's Guitar Hero action figures are in Toys 'R' Us stores now, and arriving at other retailers soon. Don't miss out!

Also, we just announced our Slash Guitar Hero action figure, which will be released in February.

Stay tuned to Spawn.com, as we are going to have a REALLY cool announcement next week about an autograph signing coming November 6 to the McFarlane store at Westgate. We'll give you a few hints of who it is:

He is one of the world's most notorious rock stars

He has a very popular reality show

A huge tour is being planned for next summer

That's all you get. Think you know who it is? If you guessed Rick Astley, you're not even close.
