I have no idea who is behind this product I came across on Amazon today, but IMHO, their product marketing guys need a little help.
Christian themed book, music and other products are big business these days. . .
Christian themed toys are a big business these days. . .
But for some reason, I just didn’t think I would ever encounter this action figure, at least not in this manifestation of it:
There’s two things that just struck me when I first saw this:
- Why is there a “DELUXE” version of Jesus? What is a plain old Jesus then?
- How do you discount Jesus…by 7%?
What would kids do with Jesus Deluxe anyway? The fish and loaves of bread are a good idea, but without the “after” what good are they to tell stories or really portray Jesus’ works?
This is either blasphemy or a brilliant way of reaching out to kids in a very contextual manner. But which one is it?

It does seem a little weird to me…..I have seen action figures of different Biblical figures in the past, but a Jesus one just seems to push it too far. I would feel weird to see it at the bottom of a toy box shoved in between a dinosaur and a G I Joe. That might just be me.
It could just be stupid
