"We came up with the list based on sales numbers, collectability and quite simply, the overall detail and coolness of the action figure," says McFarlane Toys CEO Todd McFarlane.

McFarlane Toys' Guitar Hero figures (www.mcfarlane.com/guitarhero) are just hitting store shelves now. Halo (www.mcfarlane.com/halo) debuted not long ago and Call of Duty will be in stores in early November. The figures can be found at mass retailers such as Wal-Mart, Toys 'R' Us, KB Toys, GameStop and Spencer's Gift or at major online retailers like www.toysrus.com or www.amazon.com. Moving parts and accompanying accessories vary per figure. Prices per figure vary with retailers.

Guitar Hero and Halo action figures are expected to be the top selling McFarlane action figure lines on the market this year.

In fact, the video game releases themselves have been huge successes. According to Electronic Entertainment Design And Research (EEDAR) analyst Jesse Divnich, the Guitar Hero World Tour video game is expected to eclipse 5.5 million units sold during the holiday season.

"When Halo 3 hit the market, the first day of sales surpassed that of any motion picture's opening weekend - ever," McFarlane says. "The video game industry is one that we just cannot ignore."
