These are better in the context of the "mission statement", but still not in good taste. I'd rather not be reminded of the insanity of war when I look at my toys---I've got a radio and television for that...

I should have looked at the link.
I thought you meant these miniature bombs from Brum.
Subtract my "cool" vote.

+1, I had no idea.
I am shocked they could get the license, or maybe they didn't.

They just seem pointless- take two basic shapes, customize with knock-off images of someone else's copyrighted characters, and apply hype.

Fat Man and Little Boy are being dropped on Clearance Town:

I regret not talking to these guys at San Diego Comic Con, so I could ask the simple question, "What were you THINKING?"

i talked to them at comic con.
they offered me a production piece of both the fat man and the little boy figures if i wanted it.
i took a look at them and realized the quality of them is terrible. like really cheap plastic.
plus, the add ons to the shapes are silly. who the fuck wants a bomb with wings on it?

I voted No.
I like the Russian Doll idea of the Starwars figures produced by hot toys much more. However I still won't collect it.

Jesus, those are awful. Tasteless is one thing, but tacky and cheap are another, and I think they have the hat trick right there.

Ran across this old thread.
They're still making these, apparently. They're even selling $10 blanks so people can customize them.
