Political Puppets

For those of us who’ve always wanted our own political playthings, but are too lazy to bother, say, taking over the world, TyGirlz and the generous toy manufacturers of Japan have banded together to supply our needs.

The President Obama Action figure:

Obama Doll

And the Sasha and Malia dolls, whose manufacturer swears any resemblance is entirely coincidental:

sasha and malia dolls

But come on, Mattel, where’s Michelle Barbie?

    That company is SO lying about the “accidental” names.

    Obama with a sword? Or any weapon?

    I wish.

    @class factotum: well, it’s made in Japan! And you can’t have an action figure without action. I don’t think using Twitter counts.
