When I think of great rock 'n roll bands I think of Led Zeppelin (where's the box set!?), Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Kiss, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Aerosmith, Iron Maiden, Mötley Crüe, The Doors, Megadeth, uff sorry I got a little carried away.

But when I think of Rock legends, I mean real rock 'n roll GODS I think of Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, Tommy Iommy, Lemmy, Freddie Mercury, John Lennon, Dave Mustaine and of course freaking John Gillis aka. Jack White

Leader of the The White stripes duo, and member of The Raconteurs, he has played with Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Loretta Lynn, Pete Townsend (and alicia keys doesn't count)

Here's just a taste of his awesomnes, JACK AS ELVIS (from walk hard)

I'd think I'd buy a Jack White figure. Probably something simple, like what he was wearing in the Seven Nation Army video - the black shirt and red pants. Or was it the other way around?

And somehow you leave out Angus Young in that list of legends... along with Slash, and Jimi Hendrix. Mazel tov.

Especially after "You Know My Name", which was an awesome bond theme

Action figures?

A. Buzz Osborne & Dale Crover from the Melvins - Yes :)

B. Jack White - No

Jack White and Alicia Keys Screaming at each other = FAIL.

Honestly, there are better musicians that deserve figures, and I even like the White Stripes.

I personally can't stand that's dude's voice or the White Stripes' music overall.

I agree. I'm not to fond of the White Stripes nor Jack White.

A Phil Anselmo figure and a Layne Stayley figure all the way. They are legends Jack White and his nasally high tight pitched voice can go to hell. He stinks. Hardly deserving of being able to make money.

Well dude if I make a list of Rock legends of course it would have Angus in there, as well as Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, George Harrison, Alice Cooper, B. B. King, Johnny Cash (I know he's a country singer but still awesome), Neil Young, Steve Harris, Brian May, Chuck Berry, Dio, Son House, and a LOT LOT more, that was just to name a few, and I included Jack White 'cause he's doing what no other "new" rock band is doing wich is bringing back the old blues, classic country, and just plain old school rock 'n roll to our generation, and that sr. is what makes Jackie Boy AWESOMEEEE:eek:


ps: Meg White is not his sister, she's his ex-wife, he said they're related to have her last name since Jack's real name is John Gillis, and yes the bond theme did suck for Bond standars and Jack White standars, but here's something he did for Coca Cola that didn't suck:

The theme... I saw the movie last night. it was really good, the only bad thing was the theme. the first of the new films (casino royale) had the best bond theme yet, it was hard to follow i guess.

What about the sis? Does she?

Haven't seen the movie yet, I'll probably go next week. Yeah, I liked the theme in Royale.

Yeah this boardie is making arguements as to why a Jack White action figure should be made. :D
