But now, thanks to a German gaming site that got their hands on the device, we all have something to look at. The images not only show an up-close look at the peripheral that attaches to the DS so that you may rock out, but also the whole set-up all ready to go and in someone’s hands.

Just got word that the Guitar Hero Air Guitar Rocker toy is now available in department and toy stores nationwide, including Wal-Mart, Target, Toys R Us, and Best Buy.

If you haven’t heard of this thing, it’s a $30 electronic toy that lets you jam to 10 different guitar riffs like “Smoke on the Water” by waving a plastic pick in front of a gaudy plastic belt buckle, to which is attached a little portable amp.

In other words, adult Guitar Hero fans can feel free to stay far away, as this is for the kids. A commercial on YouTube suggests as much. Even so, the Gadget Lab gang reviewed this last month.
