1. A while back....

At a local dollar store I saw a number of action figures including Jesus, Moses, Noah and Mary (peace be upon them). Bible heros I think they were called. So, you see, they are out there.

Peace.

2. Now that is a scary thought

The link is clearly a joke, but a real set of "Bible Heroes." I cannot imagine Jesus driving a Tonca truck or Mother Mary shopping for shoes with Barbie.

10. They were sitting next to ....

A bunch of other discounted action figures, including "Military Heros" and "Kung Fu Ninjas", and they were pretty much all in the same scale.

I thought about exchanging some of the bodies and heads, you know Moses' head on a beefy uniformed body complete with assault rifle, Jesus and Mary's heads on the Black and White Ninjas.... (peace be upon them, the persons, not the dolls)

I decided against it, as the last thing I thought anyone needed to see was a Muslim popping the head off a Jesus doll. :P


Rock 'em Sock 'em deities... Now there's a winner. If anyone markets it, please cut me in for a slice. :)

17. Now Kung Fu Jesus, THERE'S a blockbuster toy!

:P

3. There are SCADS of these things out there. And they're SERIOUS!

Here's Jesus, available in "Dark Skin" or "Light Skin" versions, with Mary, Job, and a Goliath apparently inspired by German sci-fi movies of the 1920's...

BibleGirl and Bibleman Action Figures. Hubba hubba! I think these were actually cheapo Mexican horror movie figures that didn't sell and got dumped onto the religious market:

A rather cheesy Moses. Jesus and other suspects are also available in this "Discovery Bible Action Figure" line:

Based on art from the Children's Discovery Bible, these Bible heroes provide children with admirable role models and allow them to act out their favorite Bible stories. Each action figure come with accessories and a Parent Guide. Ages 4-7.

These things look sort of dangerous for a 4 yr old to be playing with. What if Junior tries to eat the plastic Commandment Tablets and chokes? Straight to Hell with him, I bet!

That's what I call a cool toy.

Indeed.

12. You give THAT one to the Unbeliever kid next door to play with...

That'll teach 'im!

11. Didn't Linda Blair have that one in "The Exorcist"?

:evilgrin:

[htuttle]

6. But what if your kid starts acting out the Song of Solomon with them?

"Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies.", says one doll to the other....

:D

[FM Arouet666]

7. I wonder if the dolls are anatomically correct.? n/t

[NMMNG]

9. That is darn morbid

[really annoyed]

13. I've seen them before

My friend collects action figures... Yes, he does have Action Jesus!!

[onager]

14. Now THIS is truly Action Jesus!

Philippe Bruneau, a French toy importer, is fond of telling the story of an innovative Japanese toy manufacturer who had come up with what he thought was the perfect Christmas toy.

"It looked like a plastic crucifix with Jesus on it," said Bruneau. "But it really was a Transformer that could be turned from a passive Christ on the cross into a vengeful monster robot.

He was sure this would sell, he said, because it made Jesus Christ into a 'winner.' He was crushed when I told him to tear up his drawings."

18. hehehe...

:D

16. I have Jesus on my desk.

Note: he has wheels under his robe, so I must conclude that Ms. Hoover from the Simpsons was wrong when she said "Ralph, Jesus did not have wheels".
