Obama Action Figures

Via Alex Balk comes one of the most enjoyable things you'll see all week - super cool action figures of President Barack Obama! FROM JAPAN. Yes, it would appear that someone or something called Gamu Toys has put out some lovingly crafted Obama toys, for fun and frolic. Chances are, sharing these images with you will get us sued, by angry ninjas, but we just cannot help ourselves.

If I can trust the translating ability of the Babelfish - which I cannot! - the manufacturer describes these toys thusly:

44th generation United States of America President Barack Obama - First African type American president and Barack Obama 44th generation United States of America president in history with 12 inch action figure multi-layerization of surprise.

It is to be the thing itself surprise where such commodity comes out, but don't you think? The foreign country with it seems that either such politician figure is not unusual. We have become 2008 American Presidential election specification, where also the clothes and the accessories represent that time belong. The clothes itself have become the private suit, but it is, "[bishitsu] dresses stylishly." Also, the part where size is not agreeable with the prime field very somewhat with to it does not go.

But eyeball that quality of the head which becomes is enormous, there is a thing it closes the eye. Obama how seeing from wherever, is Obama...or the notch. It has been reproduced securely to the part where also quality of paint is high, material feeling and the like of the skin is small.

As for clothes, all removal possibilities. Really the button and the belt are used to fixing inside.

To get a better feel for the incredible playtime possibilities of these action figures, please to enjoy a slide show.

I actually have four of these figures and they don't look as rumpled as the one in this picture. I plan on keeping them for a few years as a collectible. Either he will prove to be a great President or he will be mediocre to poor. One way or another I figure he will have historical importance and that should make them a worthwhile collectible

I feel like this doll wants to tear off his shirt to reveal an "S" on it's chest!
I don't know why, either, it just looks like it should be an action figure or something!
Love you BO!

Hysterical--and your babel fish translation of the Japanese is almost as funny. Obama is lying under a "kotatsu", which is a table with a heater under it. The blanket (kakibuton) is to keep the heat in and around your body. The oranges (mikan) are a "typical Japanese winter treat." Japanese people sit under the kakibuton at the kotatsu, and after eating and drinking copious amounts of alcohol they crash out under the blanket--that's what Obama's doing in that scene.

You're right, it's how the Japanese have spent their lost decades.

What's with this "I'll rough you up" kinda look??? It's ironic because Obama's strength is his intellect and not any underlying physical threat, unlike George W. Bush, who always had this latent violent threat with him. In my opniion this "toy" completely misses the subject of Obama.

Wow, really taking the Japanese Obama action figure doll with interchangable head, hands and accessories a little too seriously aren't you?
