Japanese unleash Jedi Obama

Prez also available in James Bond and Samurai versions

Ensure Ease of Recovery with Asigra’s Agentless Software

Those of you who've been wondering why US prez Barack Obama has not yet solved world poverty and hunger, halted global warming and given a lovely puppy to each and every child on Earth will be relieved to learn he's still on the case, but has just been a bit tied up of late on intergalactic business:

Obama with lightsaber battles Darth Vader

We kid you not. Ladies and gentlemen, look on in shock and awe at the mighty Japanese Barack Obama action figure (dreadful but entertaining English translation here).

Not a fan of Star Wars? No matter, because Obama is also available in exciting Samurai and James Bond versions, the better to dispense tough justice to those who threaten the American Way of Life™.

Obama with samurai sword and in James Bond pose with pistol

Well, we reckon Vladimir Putin won't take this provocation lying down. Look out for a "Vlad the Impaler" action figure forthwith, depicting the Russian hardman stripped to the waist and wrestling Arnold Schwarzenegger's Terminator. ®

Arigatou gozaimasu to Steve Fenton for the tip-off.

False advertising!

The singing Obama has a hand NOT in the supplied hand set! I am disgusted at this misrepresentation, and will be complaining to the Advertising Standards Authority as soon as I am allowed to make my daily phone call.
