Obama action figure

By Rain Noe - January 21, 2009

in Object Culture

While we could never imagine an American toy designer proposing an action figure of the Japanese Prime Minister, it somehow makes sense the other way around.

Well, as much sense as it could make, in a world where one of the "tools of diplomacy" is a Lightsaber.

We've avoided putting up some of the more controversial action shots, but those willing to be paid a visit by the Secret Service can click the link to Gamu Toys to see what else they've got the President doing.

thanks tomur!

You can buy this via Rinkya (they order Japanese products for people who don't speak or read Japanese) at http://www.rinkya.com/storesrus.php

Tell Rinkya you want the product here (in Japanese):
