Obama Action Figure

The first American president to get his own cool action figure?

With all the hype about President Obama in the last few days it's good to see some more light hearted stuff.

He actually looks pretty cool as a Jedi. I don't think Jedi would wear ties though. They'd go through too many.

It looks like Obama is about to cap someone's ass in that last pic. Probably asked "What does Marcellus Wallace look like".

No thanks lol. I only collect female figurines, unless it comes in a set with other characters from a Anime show I won't buy male ones. I did get the Haseo figurine with the hack/gu ps2 game 1, too bad it didn't have Pi with it. Thats the only exception.

As much as I like Obama, I currently have no space for a figure version of him on my shelf.
Besides, I need to save up to replace my PS3 I had, both volumes of Akiba Romance!,and a few other things on my want list. :3

Obama's 2nd and 3rd pose looks way too awkward.
PVC models already, too... People should give those figurines to those at the Guantanamo Bay.

This looks more like an ugly David Paterson (below) x Obama love child. I take that back, it looks absolutely nothing like impossibly homosexual Obama love child, even if it did possess half of his genetic information.

First Mix president to be elected. -_-
When will people learn? Half black half white. You can even say he is more white then black. He was raised by his white mom and grandma. His black father left him when he was still a baby or little.

You have to wait until after he leaves or at least a while to see if he lives up to his promises.
This is ridiculous........

This, is, madness!
Why would Obama be carrying such weapons anyway... maybe he has a "part-time job" other than being a full time president...

It would be fun with action figures of other well-known politicians like Sarkozy, Putin or Ahmadinejad. You could also use them to teach kids about how politics work. :)
The Obama figure would also be a nice addition for Figma theater.

Obama mania is just annoying. His fanboys that get giddy at his every word and action even more so.
AP news even cover what he's having for Thanksgiving dinner, which set me thinking whether that is actually newsworthy, or have we really ran out of things to report around the world.
I wouldn't want this figure even if it's free.

It's pretty strange - all the pics I've seen don't quite look like him, but I saw the actual figure in a store recently and the resemblance is actually pretty good. My bf is getting this lol.
WOW!! I almost want one.LOL

I still think Danny should have a figure in his own image. He's well known at GSC so I really think they should make one for him.
I'm pretty surprised at all the love it is getting considering many people don't live here.

Actually that's incorrect. There was a George W. Bush pilot action figure released in 2004 by Blue Box Toys . . . . http://www.amazon.com/Elite-Force-Aviator-George-President/dp/B0002J9G1S

It is cool. It depends on how much it would cost.
Barack Obama was *not* my state senator. He was from the district two away from here.
I *recommend* reading the entire story of how he was elected U.S. Senator from Illinois in 2004. The key points being what happened to A] the more prominent Democrat running against him (& two others) in the primary election, and B] the Republican who won that party's primary for the open seat (which was being vacated by a Republican).
If an anime writer had scripted this, you would likely chastize him|her for being completely unrealistic!
Student
That definitley does NOT look like Obama
Student
i wonder if obama will buy one?
