Mega blog Gawker recently devoted an entire post to the “Obama Merchandise Classification System.” They broke it down like this: official crap, media crap, knick-knack crap and offensive crap. Curiously, the Obama action figure was missing entirely from their heavily researched crap manifesto. Maybe we at Jailbreak Toys should thank the folks over at Gawker for leaving us off their list of crap. I guess they couldn’t find the space to have an entire category about transcendent, fucking-sweet crap. We could be shooting ourselves at the lost opportunity to be featured on the most trafficked blog on the web, but instead we’ll bask in the knowledge that the limited edition Barack Obama Action Figures will be going on sale tomorrow! Pick one up, then sell it on e-bay for 5-to-10 times its value. Just a suggestion.
On a side note they gave a nice shout-out to our boy Shepard Fairey whose equally (well really on a much more global, ubiquitious, will-last-forever scale) transcendent poster of the man himself has sold out!
