L.A. Weekly:  I also read today that you have a Slash action figure coming out and it says your action figure has 15 movable parts. What are these movable parts exactly?

Slash: I have yet to see it. Maybe you can move all ten fingers [laughs].

L.A. Weekly: Maybe your ears wiggle?

Slash: [Smiles] I don't know. It's a McFarlane Toys thing from the Guitar Hero III game. I'm hoping it's ten movable fingers because I can't think of any other movable parts [laughs]!

I thought the first one was just a figurine.  This one, well, it has movable parts.... Shocked   I just think it's kind of weird looking, but it is based on the Guitar Hero version of Slash.

I don't think those movable parts are meant for use the way you are plotting , lynn.
