Welcome Eddie Riggs Into Your Own Metal Fortress

Or: Here's a chance to win a pretty sweet statue for your very own home.

Look at the calendar. If EA's marketing machine has done its job, you'll recognize that today is Tuesday, Rocktober the 13th. That means the release of Double Fine's heavy metal opus Brütal Legend is upon us. Go ahead, throw up the horns if you'd like.

Our review is forthcoming, but in the meantime, our fine friends at EA have given us the chance to offer you this limited edition statue of the game's rippin' roadie hero, Eddie Riggs. Here is the photographic evidence.

NOTE: This one is open to U.S. residents only.

Now! You know what to do. To enter, comment on this story. Yep, that's it. This Friday morning I'll select the lucky winner via contest robot and get in touch to arrange shipment and such. Off you go!

UPDATE: Winner selected! And it is... ParadoxControl. Thanks to everyone who entered.

I think there should be a lower limit of 20 or so forum posts (or wiki points) for this so the same people don't just keep making new accounts to get better odds. I bet in the time I've taken to type this, there will have been 20 new posts, at least 70% of which have a post count of 1 or 2.

Edit: why did I have to be right?
