Order a Jesus action figure! Pose Him! Let Him teach your G.I. Joes a lesson! Crucify Him on your Legos!

To the mothers out there, I know what you're thinking. But isn't this just another white Jesus toy that's going to gather dust in the toy bin with the Go-Bots and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Fear not. These figures, brought to you by Train Up A Child, Inc., are available in Caucasian or African heritage ... and you can collect a whole rack of Christ's friends, too! Mary! Goliath! Eve! Solomon! And get an angel (black or white) for just $4.95 with additional purchase!

In a mission statement on their website, the Train Up A Child, Inc. president, Andre G. Kalich, offers some guidance for the use of these toys. "It is suggested that an adult read to the child from scripture, while the child plays with the toy enacting the Biblical scene. Our purpose in creating this toy is to bring glory and honor to God and to further His Kingdom."

So get out your credit cards. You can have a complete set of biblical action figures and oodles of honor and glory for just $59.50. Pretty cheap, if you ask me.
