Actual President may vary slightly from description as an Elite Force Aviator.Elite Force Aviator: George W. Bush - U.S. President and Naval Aviator - 12" Action Figure BBI proudly introduces the latest issue in its Elite Force series of authentic military 12- inch figures, President George W. Bush in naval aviator flight uniform. Exacting in detail and fully equipped with authentic gear, this limited-edition action figure is a meticulous 1:6 scale recreation of the Commander-in-Chief's appearance during his historic Aircraft Carrier landing. On May 1, 2003, President Bush landed on the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) in the Pacific Ocean, and officially declared the end to major combat in Iraq. While at the controls of an S-3B Viking aircraft from the "Blue Sea Wolves" of Sea Control Squadron Three Five (VS-35), designated "Navy 1," he overflew the carrier before handing it over to the pilot for landing. Attired in full naval aviator flight equipment, the President then took the salute on the deck of the carrier.
This fully poseable figure features a realistic head sculpt, fully detailed cloth flight suit, helmet with oxygen mask, survival vest, g-pants, parachute harness and much more. The realism and exacting attention to detail demanded by today's 12-inch action figure enthusiast are met and exceeded with this action figure. This incredibly detailed figure is a fitting addition to the collection of those interested in U.S. history, military memorabilia and toy action figures. Actual figure may vary slightly from item shown. http://www.kbtoys.com/genProduct.html/PID/2431939/ctid/17/place/aguc?_ts=y&ls=collect&_e=3f32f&_v=3F32F32DEK4Da1049917111E&_ts=y>KBToys.com

3. I agree. Would also like to point out that the thing costs $39.99, & it |
|
doesn't even really look like Bush. Buying one to stick a pin in it, or chop its stupid head off, would not only cost a pretty penny, but would be LESS SATISFYING because the doll doesn't look enough like Bush.
I really believe that if the manufacturer wants to exploit the lucrative potential of the voo-doo doll market, they should drop their price & increase the physical resemblance.

Problems with the viscosity of the liquid plastic, and precision of the molding process. If they made the eyes as close together as Bush's really are, there would be leakage and he would come out of the mold looking like a cyclops.
