McFarlane Toys Jimi Hendrix 1969 Action Figure
With multi-platinum and gold albums to his credit and the prestigious title of “Greatest Guitarist of All Time” by Rolling Stone magazine among his many musical attributes, it’s hard to dispute Jimi’s influence on rock ‘n’ roll and pop culture.
The life-like figure re-creates the persona of Jimi, dressed in his blue velvet pants and white fringed shirt, with the familiar scarf tied around his hair and another wrapped around his left leg. With his left-handed guitar strapped around his neck, the performer is leaning back from his mic stand in front of an amplifier stack. The message spoken by this rendering is made clear by the raised hand of the guitarist, giving the “peace” sign to his adoring crowd. Created from the August 18, 1969 at 8:04 AM stage performance in New York and features several small stage accessories and a wood base to stand on. Released in 2003.
