Are your He-Man action figures boring you, with their terrifying primary colors and surging waves of homoeroticism? Well, here comes one action figure you’ll REALLY be able to take to the prom!
…What?
Wow. Odd. Anyway, Boingboing, through blogger Matt Alt, has uncovered an Obama action figure from Gamu Toys, and they really didn’t let logic hinder the design process. Not only is the new Commander in Chief weilding dual katana, he also has a terrifying array of replacable hands, shuriken, a whip and stool (which I can only assume he’ll use to… uh… tame the economy… lion?), and a giant flag. You know. Just in case he needs to sled his way down a mountain to freedom, ala Val Kilmer and the midget from Willow. Which I believe he mentioned in his speech, although to be fair, I was huffing paint throughout the entire ceremony.
And by “huffing”, I mean “eating”.
And by “paint”, I mean “sandwich”.
To the pharmacy!
