For just $24.00 each or for $224.00 for all ten dolls you can play runaway slave, uncle tom, white side kick, slave owner and others with these Django Unchained Action figures. Is anyone surprised that Mr. Tarantino has reduced our ancestors pain to a Western B-movie and action figures that will make Mr. Tarantino even richer? I am not. Do I blame him? Nope. It’s business. If there is a demand he has a right to make money from it. The question I have for you as a consumer is do you still think these people care about our history? Do you still trust these people to tell our story? Now do you see the importance of telling our stories and supporting Black artists?
Oh, but this isn’t the first time Mr Tarantino has profited off of the pain of others. Check out these Inglorious Bastards action figures. For $139.00-$149.00 each you can play Nazi war criminal!
Or even Nazi hunter! FUN!!! They capture Brad Pitt’s likeness pretty well. WOW.
The Django Unchained dolls sound like a steal compared the Inglorious Bastards dolls. I wonder why?? Would you play with them? I wouldn’t. I would rather watch Roots, Schindler’s List and open up a HISTORY BOOK. Read more about the action figures at the Daily Beast.
While I am at it, guess who has been nominated for Golden Globe Awards for Django Unchained and guess who has not? After all, this movie’s main character was a Black slave. Ever see the trailer for the movie where they mention that Django Unchained was nominated for five Golden Globes but they never mention who? Here is why:
Best Picture - Django Unchained
Best Actor NOPE!
Best Actress - Not even!
Best Supporting Actor- Leonardo DiCaprio and Christoph Waltz
Best Director - Quentin Tarantino
For a list of the nominees go here.
I am not asking you to protest or get outraged. I am asking you to do what is hard. I am asking you to think. Think long and hard and support people who uplift you. Ask yourself who has gained from this and who has not? Be selective with who and what you support. Remember a revolution always starts between two ears. Start yours today.
How is this any different than Negroes buying those g*ddamn Madden NFL video games, which, year after year, depict “piece-of-speedy-meat” black men running around in Roman Colosseum-like arenas? Or supporting the perpetual rape of Afrika by “upgrading” a phone every 6 months or by buying the biggest piece of rolling-sh*t car they can afford? These dolls are just the latest result of us proving that we’re willing to buy any and everything these white boys produce.
Madden exploits everyone by the way.
Let’s care about us first. We’re the ones who need the TLC.
It’s your choice! You don’t have to see the movie or buy the dolls last I heard. Don’t you understand the dice are loaded in Hollywood? I retired from there! I was the only black person on the crew most of the time unless it was on a black show! None of this is surprising to say the least. It is not a level playing field! Will not be, in our lifetime, I’m afraid.
Here in lies the problem, it’s not like their aren’t enough powerful in position AA, that could write produce, and act several roles, to tell our story our way. What’s keeping us or them from stepping up and being responsible, telling Black American history????
OMG I just saw this!!! There is something really wrong with all this… is he selling a lot? IDK the movie was one thing but this is really creepy!!!
Hold your outrage for the truly outrageous. Action figures are made for movies of cult status all the time. They’re collectibles. Do a little google. While it could be said, Django isn’t of cult status (yet), Tarantino is a director and writer of cult status.
These dolls aren’t by Mattel, they’re obviously not meant to date Barbie and live in the dream house.
I savour, result in I discovered just what I used to be taking a look for.
You have ended my 4 day long hunt! God Bless you man.
Have a great day. Bye

What you said made a ton of sense. However, think on this, suppose you wrote a catchier
post title? I ain’t suggesting your information is not
solid, however what if you added a post title to maybe grab
a person’s attention? I mean Now you can play runaway slave with
Django Unchained action figures!!! is a little plain.
You should glance at Yahoo’s front page and note how they write post headlines to grab viewers interested.
You might add a video or a related picture or two to grab readers excited
about everything’ve got to say. In my opinion, it would bring your website a little livelier.

In terms of sharpness, the lens is good in the center, but there is noticeable softness in the corners.
The Japanese-made Minolta Rokkor-X lens has
a slight ding that might make it difficult to screw in a filter.
Though it is the most expensive in the list, this is surely the only camera you will ever need.
I’m not that much of a online reader to be honest but your blogs really nice, keep it up!
I’ll go ahead and bookmark your website to come back in the future.
Cheers
