Talking Jesus Action Figure Sells Out At Walmart

Consumerist:

If you were planning on getting a Talking Jesus Action Figure this Christmas (or whatever) you're almost out of luck. Walmart has completely sold out of the toy and Target.com has "very limited supply," according to the manufacturer's spokesperson, Joshua Livingston.

"We feel blessed that the toys are now in the hands of thousands of children, teaching them the word of God. We knew that the toys would make great Christmas gifts, but to see them sell so well before the Christmas buying season begins proves that parents want alternatives in the toy aisle," says Livingston.

Does he come with concealed carry permit
and an ankle holster??

Big deal follows right after Cabbage Patch dolls, Tickle me Elmos, Transformers, Playstations, iPods, iPhones, etc., etc., etc.

The only difference is the people that buy the Jebus dolls feel they are required to to show their faith where all those other products people buy because they want the thing.

They should label it

''The Ultimate Surrender Monkey''

In the age of reality shows, they should sell him with a cross, nails and a hammer, so that the kids can nail him to the cross. In addition, he should have some change of clothes, like a loincloth and a crown of thorns. Maybe drops of blood should flow out of his hands and feet while is being nailed.

What language is he talking in?

Where is the friend Skipper the leaper doll? Maybe next year. A gay Ken doll slightly revamped as Saint John the Divine, could be a companion too.

[Meah]

The person who named this doll should be jailed and flogged. Perhaps hung. Perhaps stoned to death. I would be afraid, very afraid.

Does he turn the other cheek, love thine enemies or beat swords into plowshares like the real Jesus would.

Or would that make him to much of a wuss.

A Jesus action figure? And this is from a religion that expects itself to be taken seriously? Yes, let's brainwash the little ones in his holy name, amen!

There's also a Dick Cheney action figure. Only it doesn't talk. It comes with a shredder,a Vietnam draft deferment, and a miniature Constitution to wipe his dirty butt.It also has a pacemaker(batteries not included)that beeps everytime it has a heart attack. Money-lined coffin sold separately.

a friend photo shopped the picture of huckabilly adding a small paint brush mustache... egad, the similarity

[CrankyCurmudgeon]

Do they sell accessories? How about a set of Camos, a lightly armored Humvee, and an M-16 for him so he can do battle with the Islamofascists? More weaponry? Does he need anything or can he call in a heaven-strike of hellfire and brimstone? Or am I confusing heaven with that other place? It's so hard to keep track of all the players without a program.

How about some tanning lotion. We can be pretty sure the historical Jesus wasn't as white as this picture shows him.

You know, if you cut that hippy hair ... I think Jesus would look a lot like my old Planet of the Apes action figure ... Taylor.
