Both are based on the old Mauser “broomhandle” automatic pistol. A rather unusual choice for a modern terrorist. Not many of them are firearms collectors I think.

I don’t know why they would be upset. If I was a junior jihadist, I would think that was the coolest thing ever.

Reminds me of the Lego guillotine my daughter and I made for her 4th grade class lesson on the French revolution. Lots of little heads rolling around. My sons loved shooting up their action figures... fake blood and playdoe helped. All on video tape somewhere. Let the kids play for crying out loud.

Does the figurine come with little miniature “torture” equipment, (tiny Barbie-sized panties, tiny water boarding stuff, tiny interrogation light, things like that)?

Well, I just checked out this brickarms.com site that makes these. Every one of their little military guys, including Mr. Jihadi here, are on back order.

I’m sure they’re really upset about not being politically correct.

Yeah, the liberals will go bonkers too. They don’t want kids playing ‘fighting games’. No cowboys and indians anymore.

They will do as they do with other things, raise a rumpus and get them taken off the shelves. I can’t recall seeing a little boys gun and holster set in umpteen years.
