Where the Action Is

As long as I can recall, action figures have been a staple of the toy industry for boys. These have been G.I. Joe, Masters of the Universe, Star Wars, and so on. These figures allowed little boys (and sometimes bigger boys as well) to create and live out adventures in their imaginations. One of the best parts was always the little stickers and such on the packages that would proclaim what the special "action" was the figures could perform. "Kung Fu chopping Action!!" "Weapons actually fire!!" These were the things that would, at times, draw me to the figures that I wanted to play with. These were the things that were so cool about the toys.

Now there are "alternative" action figures for sell at select Wal-Mart stores. These are figures that I'm sure some would call "the original action heroes" and they are, but I just wonder what kinds of adventures and actions people will be able to come up with that will be all that different from the other action figures they have. Starting soon, in the Wal-Mart stores that sell the most Bibles, they will also offer Bible Action Figures. So far there are three that I know of. With that in mind, here is my list of who would be good "Bible action figures" and what their special action could be.

10) Noah- With super hammering action (Ark and animals not included)

9) King David- With spinning sling arm action (Bathsheba and Goliath sold separately)

8) Samson- With donkey jawbone swinging action (Philistines soldiers sold separately)

7) Daniel- With super praying action and lion with non-working jaws

6) Aaron- With staff and miniature golden calf statue

5) Moses- With 10 Commandments and burning bush (Israelites sold separately)

4) Balaam- With talking donkey (batteries not included)

3) Elijah- Alter & sacrifice included (Prophets of Baal sold separately)

2) Paul- Comes with scraps of cloth for healing, and a viper (snake, not car)

1) Jesus- With rising hand (squeeze his knees) "miracle" action (Apostles sold separately)

What do you think? Peace and Love y'all.
