AC/DC guitarists
Angus and

Angus,
Malcolm.
The latest in the
Guitar Hero limited-edition collectible series, the sculpture of
Angus Young displays the rock star in his iconic schoolboy uniform, while the
Malcolm Young figure depicts the talented rhythm guitarist in his signature stance cranking out the
AC/DC crunch. The
Guitar Hero series focuses on capturing the images of legendary musicians of both past and present in detailed limited edition sculptures.
"The dual attack of the
Young brothers is one of the all time greatest pairings in rock.
Angus is the ultimate combo of chops and showmanship and
Mal's rhythm work has always been
AC/DC's secret weapon. It is only fitting that they be created as a tandem for the series," says
Tony Simerman, President and Creative Director of
KnuckleBonz, Inc.The
Angus and
Malcolm Young figures are officially licensed products from
AC/DC,
Angus and
Malcolm Young.
AC/DC was formed in 1973 by
Malcolm Young along with his brother
Angus. The guitar duo helped anchor the band as one of the most influential hard rock sounds with an amazing multi-decade career that still fascinates fans over and over with their powerful yet clean style. The
Young brothers are responsible for what many recognize as several of the greatest rock guitar albums of all time.
The
Angus and
Mal sculptures were carefully crafted using a team of highly skilled artists to sculpt a remarkable likeness of both guitarists. The limited edition figures will be cast in a poly-resin and hand-painted in fine detail. Both sculpture editions will be hand-numbered and will include a certificate of authenticity. Each of these figures will be created in a very limited edition of 3,000 each worldwide.
