Shocker Toys are planning to release the ultimate items for any metal nerd's collection this summer at Comic Con: a full set of Dethklok action figures! Dethklok are, of course, the famous animated death-metal band from Adult Swim's "Metalocalypse" cartoon. The toys (they're not toys dammit!) will be fully painted when they are released.

Seriously, the guy's real first name is Thor. He was destined to be in a metal band from birth.
