President Obama created countless opportunities for businesses, entrepreneurs and marketers without signing or passing a single piece of legislation. That’s the magic of Barack! The Obama-mania corporate cash out has included everything from pins and t-shirts to sword bearing action figures and chia pets.
Here’s a list of ten (10) Barack crazy merchandise the world could (or couldn’t) do without:
1.) Obama Chia Pet
Having trouble finding the perfect Valentines gift for your boo boo? Search no more! The Obama Chia Pet is a sure-fire way to please your significant other. Available in the President’s “happy” or “determined” look. Full growth in 1-2 weeks!
Purchase here for $20.
2.) The Official Run DC Shirt
This is my favorite. It was first created by Black Klown Clothier for a few of their friends and as a giveaway for the 2008 BET Awards in Los Angeles. Snatch one up while you can!
Purchase here for $30!
3.) John K. Limited Edition 9 Inch Political Toy Barack Obama
Designed by the creator of Ren and Stimpy and comes shipped in it’s own “Hope, Change, Wish” packaging. Is this supposed to be Barack Obama or Ross Perot?
Purchase here for $26.99.
4.) Barack Obama 6″ Action Figure
Apparently it comes with a toy marble which is a CHOKING HAZARD for anyone under 3 years of age OR who has problems keeping things out of their mouths. I’m just wondering why his left pointer finger is extended in the Donald Trump “you’re fired” position…
Purchase here for $13.95.
5.) Obama Paper Dolls
“Make the most of a key moment in history with these beautifully rendered paper dolls featuring President-elect Barack Obama, his wife, Michelle, and their two daughters. Includes a complete wardrobe of authentic outfits worn by the couple on the campaign trail. Features brief biographical notes and a bonus ‘Election Night Scorecard.’”
Paper?? Dolls??? How exciting!
Purchase here for $7.99.
6.) Captain Obama
Claiming to be the FIRST and ONLY Barack Obama superhero toy with so much attention to detail that they even included his mole! What a great selling point…
“Captain Obama is a superhero with extraordinary powers and unprecedented idealism dedicated to hope, freedom, and change for the American people. The origin story of Captain Obama was that he was born Barack Obama on the planet Earth. As a child he started to display superhuman abilities, which upon reaching maturity he resolved to use for good not evil. Keeping his secret identity hidden. Barack Obama lives among the humans as a social activist and community organizer, helping the impoverished and speaking for the unheard voices of America. When needed Superhero Captain Obama appears to fight crooked businessmen and politicians, demolishing run-down tenements, keeping a moral code of conduct and protecting the American way.”
7.) Obama Bobblehead
Bobble for change with the Official Funko Wobbler made of PVC plastic! Ladies, this is what your man really wants!
Purchase here for $11.99.
8.) President Obama at 3AM Squeezable Figure
Proof that Obama is ready to answer that phone at 3AM! Not only does he look great on your desk, but it “bounces off of walls and Republicans without leaving a mark!” Apparently it’s also a great “ice breaker” for those awkward moments…
Purchase here for $6.95.
9.) Sasha and Malia Dolls
You all heard this story before. These suckas got pulled from the shelves and rightfully so! You heard her! The First Lady said “hands off!”
Have fun dishing out major $$ if you can find these!
And Finally… the ULTIMATE Obama-Mania corporate cash out product…
10. ) President Obama Action Figure
This is the reason why we all voted for Obama. We know he’s the go-to-guy when it comes to fighting the forces of evil like Darth Vader! Super poseable and well-trained in all forms of martial arts.
