Description

BBI proudly introduces the latest issue in its Elite Force series of authentic military 12- inch figures, President George W. Bush in naval aviator flight uniform. Exacting in detail and fully equipped with authentic gear, this limited-edition action figure is a meticulous 1:6 scale recreation of the Commander-in-Chief's appearance during his historic Aircraft Carrier landing. On May 1, 2003, President Bush landed on the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) in the Pacific Ocean, and officially declared the end to major combat in Iraq. While at the controls of an S-3B Viking aircraft from the "Blue Sea Wolves" of Sea Control Squadron Three Five (VS-35), designated "Navy 1," he overflew the carrier before handing it over to the pilot for landing. Attired in full naval aviator flight equipment, the President then took the salute on the deck of the carrier.

This fully poseable figure features a realistic head sculpt, fully detailed cloth flight suit, helmet with oxygen mask, survival vest, g-pants, parachute harness and much more. The realism and exacting attention to detail demanded by today's 12-inch action figure enthusiast are met and exceeded with this action figure. This incredibly detailed figure is a fitting addition to the collection of those interested in U.S. history, military memorabilia and toy action figures. Actual figure may vary slightly from item shown.

4. I think the idea is to
be so absurd that you anesthetize the general public.

5. Oh, the scarred children!
Imagine the damage that will be inflicted when children, being naturally curious and not a small bit naughty, remove MiniChimpy's intensely butch flight suit and discover that the Pretzeldentumal bulgelette is, in fact, a teeny, tiny, rolled-up athletic sock.

The horror. The horror.

8. I'm stunned!

he overflew the carrier before handing it over to the pilot for landing.

They actually admit that he didn't land the plane on the carrier! I think that's the first time I've seen that in print.

10. Only the draggers of knuckles believe that he landed...
...a multi-million dollar plane on a multi-billion dollar carrier.

- Here's a guy that was GROUNDED from flying because he couldn't follow orders and comply with a medical exam. And then he just simply 'disappeared' for the last two years of service and played politics with his poppy.

- This is how the corporate RWingers build an image for a loser.

9. "meticulous 1:6 scale recreation "...Including the over-blown....
...Codpiece?

I'd like to meet whoever wrote that copy, because if they could give me the same kind of BJ they gave The Chimp. I'd marry 'em...

What was that Shrubbie was saying a few months back about "Revisionist Hitory"?

11. If you take off the pants of the Bush doll, you'll see he has no balls!
Edited on Sun Aug-10-03 09:11 AM by RatTerrier
Otherwise, the idea of this doll is so pathetic as to be funny.

Here's a doll who can make GI Joe homeless, and drive Barbie and Ken into foreclosure on the dream house.

Does the doll go AWOL for 18 months?

Any anatomically-correct Bush daughters dolls? :)

12. Pathetic.
Edited on Sun Aug-10-03 09:23 AM by Wickster
At least now we know what the rich will do with their returned taxes! $39.95! And it doesn't do anything! Typical. :)

Maybe if it came with a little bag of plastic pretzels, it at least might be fun.

14. I may have to buy one.
Edited on Sun Aug-10-03 10:23 AM by gulliver
They'll be collector's items when Bush gets thrown out of office as the worst president in history. I wish one of the candidates would hold one of these up at the debates and make fun of it, bring up AWOL, etc.

17. Anyone Here Remember When a Beer Company was Using Pics of B & H?
The Clintons asked them to cease and desist.

I just might buy one of these before they get wiped off the market, then sell on on eBay to Bush lovers for crazy profits.

18. "Age: 14+ years"
Is this referring to the "Elite Force Aviator" or the intended giftee?

20. Do you think the manufacturer
knows Bush's record with the txnational guard. That he was trained to fly an obsolete plane (so he would never have skills of value in 'Nam); that he requested a transfer to a base with no planes so he could play politics? that when his request was denied he played politics anyway and just didn't show? that the period he didn't show was also the time when all personal were required to have medical exams that included drug testing - and there are records that he failed to obey this order (the drug test/medical exam) and thus was barred from even flying the obsolete plane? and that then he obtained a discharge a full year before the end of his cush duty so he could go to Harvard for an mba (becaue he couldn't get in to UT Law School). Why would such an honored military pilot not show up for a year, and then bailout a year early to go to school? Wonder how much time he actually spent doing any 'service' and how that compares to folks who actually went to 'Nam.

Wonder if the maker of the doll knows this.
