Ron Paul action figures! The best, worst and weirdest swag of the 2012 campaign

Would you pay $95 for a Ron Paul action figure? Revolution PAC, the super PAC supporting Paul's candidacy, is betting on it.

Earlier this week, the group unveiled a pair of limited edition, talking action figures: a "Commander-in-Chief" Paul, replete with a the Texas Republican in a replica of one of his oversized suits, clutching a copy of the Constitution; and a "Super Hero" Paul donning Superman-like spandex. All proceeds, of course, go directly to the group's efforts to net Paul the Republican nomination.

I like the Homeboy Hoodie myself. Definitely upscale from most of the stuff Obama sells.

All talk and no action.

They need a Ron Paul inaction figure for the subcommittee chairman Ron Paul version.

Just wait until people get a look at the accessory kit.
A white flag, white hooded robe, Cheech endorsed bong, and rose colored glasses.

Commander in chief Paul doesn’t look like he’s in command of his pants.

[Ditter]

I am so embarrassed for Dr. Paul!

[SJackson]

This post should embarass Dr. Paul. The ‘Protocols’ — Alive and Well World Over . His foundation funded by the last campaign, run by campaign people, selling the Protocols.

Talking?
What you pull the string and the doll says: I surrender or Israel is evil or it’s Americas fault or Iran’s nukes are not a problem or that’s all folks or where’s my tin foil hat or .....

They are talking action figures:

“I'm Ron Paul, and I'm a champion of...”

a. the Constitution
b. a Gold Standard
c. aliens in my pants
d. keeping coloreds in their place
e. blunts for everyone
f. surrender to the Jihadists
g. tinfoil hats

“c. aliens in my pants”

I just assumed he liked to sleep in them. A logical conclusion but not conspiracy theory enough for Ron Paul!

[MEGoody]

Oh, my. This certainly lends credence to Paul's being an actual, serious candidate for the Presidency.

Do I really need a sarc tag?

“I like the Homeboy Hoodie myself. Definitely upscale from most of the stuff Obama sells.”

He looks like the kind of ‘urban youth’ that he’d have no problem blasting with a shotgun.

Such a gun cannot, of course, be registered, but one bought privately (through the classifieds, for example).

I just knew aliens would come up in this thread! I love aliens, they're everywhere.

[MrFred]

I guess thats slightly better then a RuPaul action figure.

Ripoff. They just took the Pee-Wee Herman doll and painted the top of the head white.
