Sarah Palin Action Figure Has a Friend!
14 01 2009We knew it had to happen. Brace yourself for the Sarah Palin Action Figure Collection. (Are you braced?)
You can order your very own at HeroBuilders.com. And you’re not stuck with just one option, either. There’s black suited “Business Sarah”, there’s “I-don’t-want-to-know-what-people-are-doing-with-this” Schoolgirl Sarah, and there’s some kind of strange “Superhero Sarah” in a flowing trench coat and a white satin micro-mini.
And don’t worry. Sarah won’t be lonely. She has a companion. Todd Palin? Noooo. Um… Lt. Governor Sean Parnell? Noooo. Press flack Bill McAllister? Nooooo…. It’s none other than Joe the Plumber. You can create all kinds of fun adventures with Sarah and Joe. They can pop over to Israel and talk about how lame the media is. They can jet back to Anchorage and talk about how lame the media is. They can stare into each other’s painted eyes. Or they can stand around and enjoy their plastic craniums, just like the real ones do.
And lest we fear that HeroBuilders is politically partisan, they’ve also got “Joe the Vice President”, Beach Blanket Obama, and Elliot “I used my own money” Spitzer to round out the collection.
h/t to Mudflatter ‘Scott Palin’ for the link!

Leave it to Doonesbury!

V. funny what those action figure dolls can get up to with their plastic parts.
Oh-oh, those Doonesburies got a bit clipped in my viewer. Maybe a resize needed?
Resized. If reading is difficult the originals can be found at the HeroBuilders link in the post. AKM

And say! That action figure looks like it is the action figure to Nailin Pailin. Are you sure that’s not the porn version?
January 14th, 2009 at 11:24 AM
This is rich! Interesting choice of clothing — or lack thereof!
January 14th, 2009 at 11:33 AM
.. I love the “stay at work mom” comment, but perhaps it should be called an “in-action” figure ..
January 14th, 2009 at 11:39 AM
At first glance, the “Schoolgirl/Lolita Sarah” seems destined for the adult export market (Japan), but on second thoughts it’s no different than a regular Bratz doll.
Are there no “VP Sarah” dolls available?

@ Crystal F (11:33:42) :“in-action” figure
Oh!!So yes.

Why is Joe the plumber holding a crowbar? Shouldn’t he be holding a plunger? (Or maybe duct tape for Sarah’s mouth?)
January 14th, 2009 at 11:46 AM
What do they say when you pull their strings?
January 14th, 2009 at 11:50 AM
Surely there are orange jumpsuits for SP at the ready…..
January 14th, 2009 at 12:05 PM
What is next for the Republican old men? A Sarah blow-up doll? Would not surprise me. Or a chatty doll? Pull the string and it says: “In what respect, Charle?” or “What is it exactly, that a vice-president DOES?” or “I lost because of the gotcha journalists, my handlers, and the nasty anonymous bloggers – WAAAAAH!”

————————————————————
The crowbar is there so you don’t confuse him with Joe the Bald Dude Who Does Nothing.
January 14th, 2009 at 12:14 PM
Interesting how Sarah and Joe the Plumber were the easiest characters to portray in plastic.
The others don’t really look much like their real world counterparts.
January 14th, 2009 at 12:15 PM
The Repub Dream Team, Gosh Darnit, also.

His other job is in “collections” ?

I don’t trust that plastic smile one little bit.
January 14th, 2009 at 12:39 PM
Check out John Stewart’s “Blamey Whinehouse” Palin segment posted on Huffington.
As for the Action Figure, pull the string for six different whines!
Imagine dropping Sarah blow up dolls instead of balloons from the ceiling at the 2012 GOP convention! (Whoa, just kidding!)
January 14th, 2009 at 12:41 PM
Truly a sign of the apocalypse.
Part of me wants to do the google and see if there is a life size blow-up Governor Grifter available. But I’m too scared I’d find one and have to use the last of my brain bleach to get that thought out of my head.
As for Joe the Plumber, I’m taking bets on whether he gets out of Israel alive. It’s only time before he shoots his mouth off about the wrong subject and gets “lost”.

The way Joe (not his name) the plumber (not his job) is reporting (not even going there), has been annoying the Israelies, I wouldn’t be surprised to hear about a ‘friendly fire’ incident.
January 14th, 2009 at 1:10 PM
Ok mudpups- these comments are so funny, I spit coffee all over my keyboard.
(Off to get paper towels, muttering “I know better than to drink while on Mudflats”…)

OMG *SNORrrrrrrrrrTTt!!
The article says ‘don’t forget to fill it with hot air’, hHhhhhhhhhAaaaaaaaaaa
JUST LIKE the original.

*snicker* Good thing I wasn’t drinking when I read that (snark)
January 14th, 2009 at 1:38 PM
Well I’ll gladly pass it to you COAN because I will not click that link…no matter how tempted I am to do it. Now I wonder how long I can resist…
UK Lady, I’ve had the misfortune to see a few of Joe’s reports and temper tantrums with Israeli reporters/citizens. In addition to perhaps getting “lost” I think a friendly fire incident as you mentioned could indeed be another result of his visit. Isn’t it nice that the right wing Pajamas Media website/blog sent him there to represent this country? We’ve had our standing in the world sullied enough by BushCo without having this…how do I say this tactfully…imbecile running around the world acting as the face of our common citizen.
Oh well, hopefully after a few months of the Obama Administration we can see a change in how this country is perceived and where we’ll ultimately be heading. That is if the Republicans don’t throw too many wrenches into the works.
Two years ago I travelled to Belgium and France on vacation and as soon as I admitted to being from the United States (as opposed to lying and saying I was Canadian like some do) I automatically apologized. Thankfully everyone I came in contact with was nice and seemed to have a viewpoint that it was Bush and his people that were the problem and not the citizens (though they always asked how so many people voted for him). I am going to be going to England this summer and I so want to say I’m from the United States without cringing and spouting a knee jerk apology. I have my fingers crossed.
Sorry for the long post and enjoy your evening everyone!

NEW THREAD ALERT!

Pursang – I looked…….go ahead…….it’s funny !!!
January 14th, 2009 at 1:55 PM
Pursang……..the more I think about it……you set us up !!!
January 14th, 2009 at 1:58 PM

Great that you are coming to England. Don’t apologise for anybody, we have more than our share of idiots here. see link

These are two of our ‘celebrities’ on TV tonight. Too funny, although Latoya Jackson is on the same programme.
January 14th, 2009 at 2:36 PM
I searched for “Palin inflatable”, and the first listed US vendor appears to be sold out. However Canada will be happy to send you the “This is Not Sarah Palin” love doll” from http://www.sextoyscanada.com/catalog/popup_image.php?pID=2790 and our dollar exchange is cheap too here also.
Far as I can tell from the picture, this one will satisfy your curiosity, though if you press her nose I don’t know what will happen. I probably don’t want to know.
January 14th, 2009 at 2:42 PM
Does that include batteries and/or lube………never mind….sorry I asked……..
January 14th, 2009 at 4:12 PM
rrrowrrr.
I hope proceeds go to fund Planned Parenthood or the Special Olympics or something.
January 14th, 2009 at 4:51 PM
Well I finally clicked the link and it was funny though if it was inflated I’d probably think otherwise.
How did I set you up AustinTX?
The clip you linked was hilarious. That was Celebrity Big Brother right? I remember reading about a flack on it one time (Brit version) when a Bollywood actress was somehow being picked on or something by a few of the female houseguests. I had never heard of Jade Goody and haven’t heard of her since but she was a real loud one to say the least.
The good thing about going to England is that I’ll at least partially speak the language.
I’ll be sure to take my British to American phrase book just in case though!
January 14th, 2009 at 4:57 PM
That yellow crowbar is probably there so that the bow&arrow crowd have a nice neat target to go for. Haybale not included.
Speaking of the UK… wonder how long it’ll be before Palin shows up on pg. 3.
January 14th, 2009 at 8:06 PM
Ah, some of you guys are late to the party with the Not Sarah Palin doll.
But to be fair, there is also an Obama dildo, so…
January 14th, 2009 at 8:41 PM
BigPete — they tried to do a VP Palin doll, but the clothing allowance made it too costly for most consumers.
January 15th, 2009 at 1:30 AM
Thank you McCain for both, Joe the plumber and Sarah the moron.
January 15th, 2009 at 3:43 AM
OhCrap – did you order one ???
January 15th, 2009 at 8:28 AM
If there is a blow up doll of SP – the first customer would have to be our very Conservative Rick Lowry. When Sarah winked at him – his leg tingled and stars shot around the room. I’m sure someone explained later to him exactly what he was having – it starts with an O.
