Burton’s time with Metallica was short but highly influential. He appeared on the band’s first three studio albums, “Kill ‘Em All,” “Ride the Lightning,” and “Master of Puppets,” which are considered classic albums in the heavy metal genre. Burton’s bass playing on these albums was a major factor in their success and helped to establish him as one of the genre’s most respected musicians.
Tragically, Burton died in a bus accident while on tour with Metallica in 1986. He was only 24 years old at the time. Despite his short career, Burton left an indelible mark on the world of heavy metal and continues to be remembered and celebrated by fans and musicians alike.
Super7, the makers of some fantastic collectibles, have something exciting in store for us. They’ve created a highly detailed Cliff Burton action figure, complete with three different heads, each with a unique expression, to showcase the iconic bassist’s energetic stage presence. The figure also comes with a bass guitar and strap, as well as nine interchangeable hands for a variety of poses.

And let’s not forget the included hammer – a must-have accessory for any true metalhead. This action figure is guaranteed to blow your mind.
Super7 has announced that the Cliff Burton action figure is slated for shipment in the first quarter of 2023. To ensure you don’t miss out on this fantastic collectible, be sure to pre-order through Super7 before March 10th.
