  1. scannerdan says:

    How?

  2. Aja says:

    History sure would have been different if native Americans had weapons like these.

    • BondFan4518 says:

      Well for a start, there would be no national language: Just dialects of Sioux, Dakota, Iroquouis and Apache.

      • WhoaNellie says:

        And it’d be COOOOOOOLD in those teepees we’d be living in in the winter.
        Plus all that smoke from the fire in middle of the teepee would be bad for my sinuses.

        • Brewski says:

          Depends where you live… The coastal longhouses in the Pacific NW were relatively comfy!

          • WhoaNellie says:

            I’m >in< the Pacific NW. Had 4 feet of snow in my front yard a coupla months ago.
            But I do like coastal salmon :)

            • Brewski says:

              I’m jealous… lived my whole life in Seattle area (brother in Portland), then moved 5 yrs ago to New England. I’ll trade the winter we had this year for yours, anytime!! Snow, snow, snow, I can’t take any more, make it stop!! :(

              • WhoaNellie says:

                Exactly how we feel in North Idaho, trust me!
                DAMN that Global Warming!

                • Arthur Eld says:

                  Two weeks of fine weather – yay! Almost 20 degrees Celsius right now :-D But I’m inside, working. :-(

                  • hammykins says:

                    It’s been spring for a few weeks here. In fact, I was wearing a t-shirt and shorts not three days ago. Then it snowed the next day. It’s 6 Celsius today. I hate these weather swings.

                    • Arthur Eld says:

                      Could happen here too. I really hope it doesn’t!

                      • Dragonwriter says:

                        We have a frost/freeze advisory for tomorrow.

                        *cries*

                        • willdog says:

                          IN Minnesota, we are having the most unwinterish weather ever!!!

                        • Avis says:

                          REALLY? It’s supposed to reach 50 here! How is that possible?

                        • willdog says:

                          50? *feels jealous*

                        • hammykins says:

                          50? *googles “Celsius Fahrenheit converter”*

                        • aikiwaza says:

                          Try Montana. We had a day where it got to 65 then that night we got snow for a full day. now it is going to be 60 for a couple of days, then snow again.

                        • willdog says:

                          Last weekend we were supposed to get a blizzard, possibly a foot of snow. We got approximately a quarter of an inch that melted within 20 minutes.

                        • aikiwaza says:

                          Must be that global warming thing. Making all this snow fall. Don’t get me wrong I love snow, but when it’s spring/summer, stop snowing!

                        • willdog says:

                          I personally don’t see the problem with global warming. Bring it on!

                        • aikiwaza says:

                          Sorry. I don’t know if i was clear. My global warming comment was meant to be very sarcastic. I like all weather, I just want it to be consistent. No summer weather and then making me pull out a snow scrapper to drive home at night.

                        • WhoaNellie says:

                          You guys wanna read an excellent book, try State of Fear by Michael Crichton. I highly recommend it, both as a great read and as an education about what’s really going on with “global warming”.

                        • Avis says:

                          Using Michael Chrichton as a reputable source for pretty much anything is slightly ridiculous. He’s a good read, if that’s your thing. But he’s not exactly a reliable source of factual information.
                          I’m sorry, that came out snarky, but I’m not sure how to say it.
                          I really don’t mean to offend.

                        • Arthur Eld says:

                          “Eaters of the dead” is great! But also not reliable. :-)

                        • WhoaNellie says:

                          His data was taken directly from NASA and NOAA – three years of research before writing the book, because he wanted it to be accurate even though it’s a novel. If you’re saying that NASA and NOAA aren’t reliable sources, I really don’t know how to respond :)

                        • aikiwaza says:

                          I call to mind the Challenger.

                        • Avis says:

                          He used their data but he most certainly tweaked it. He writes novels, not scientific manuals.

                        • WhoaNellie says:

                          I doubt that he tweaked it – his whole point would be skewed if something so asily verified were tweaked. You’d need to read the afterward in the book, I suppose, but the whole point was about how data are intentionally skewed by the global warming proponents as a way to make money and gain control over people.
                          If his charts and data were compared to the charts and data they were taken from and found to be modified, he’d be an obvious fraud. Instead, there has been no rebuke – at all – from the “scientific” community. The reality is that there are MANY – and more every day – scientists who say it’s a natural phenomenon and that we’re actually heading into a cooling cycle.

                        • Aerliss says:

                          Michael Crichton… great read? *cough*

                        • WhoaNellie says:

                          *hands Aerliss a cough drop*
                          Been hanging out with Avis?

                        • hammykins says:

                          I don’t really pay attention to the global warming thing. It’s pretty much irrelevant in most people’s day to day life.
                          Energy conservation? It’s just good sense. Saving energy saves you money.
                          Alternative forms of energy? We can’t subsist on fossil fuels forever. Regardless of how bad they are for the environment, there is a limited amount to be found on Earth.

                        • WhoaNellie says:

                          And by the way, there are about 50 major US publications listed on Amazon that lauded the book VERY highly.
                          hehehe… but I’m sure you’re right ;)

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          Crighton is notorious for tweaking facts to fit his plots. Many, many writers do it. That doesn’t make him a bad writer.

                          The fact that he’s a bad writer makes him a bad writer. :grin:

                        • stevie w says:

                          Our media is notorious for tweaking the facts. Don’t trust the media farther than media farther than you can throw the TV.

                          Global warming hysteria is nonsense.

                          1. The sun is getting brighter and other planets and moons show evidence of warming in last 20 years.
                          2. Strong historical climate variablility with zero human involvement. which is greater than what some models predict due to increased CO2.
                          3. There is no runaway greenhouse effect due to CO2 or methane, because incrementally more CO2, has incrementally less effect.
                          4. Water vapor is BY FAR the largest greenhouse gas, and we ain’t going to “control” that.
                          5. Historically CO2 levels PRECEDE temperature, not the other way around.
                          6. Al Gore is an idiot.
                          7. Global warming is an excuse for global socialistic governance. .
                          8. You’re actually worried about a 1-2 degree warming and a 2-3 feet increase in sea level in the next century ?
                          9. This will cost TENS or possibly HUNDREDS of TRILLIONS of dollars over the next few decades.
                          10. It would be yet one more reason for jobs to flee the country, and go to countries that are not bound to abide by this.

                        • Wildman says:

                          “6. Al Gore is an idiot.”

                          Well, you do have a point there.
                          I mean, you cant argue with that.

                • Brewski says:

                  Idaho! I grew up in Pullman, just a hop away!
                  No worries, here ya go:
                  *hands a large can of sunshine to WN*
                  Don’t use it all in one place. :)

                • KB says:

                  or the lack of warming thereof.

              • King Mykul says:

                *waves hands in air and chants anti-snow spell*
                *Nothing happens*

                Sorry about that. I seem to have run out of anti-snow magic.
                *shrug*

      • lolMiel says:

  9. Kotetsuo says:

    • DrB says:

      What’s the writing in the top right? I think it says…warning, invasion hazard.

      • WhoaNellie says:

        I believe that’s “Warning – Invasion Lizard” actually.

      • Marius says:

        No, it’s. . . warning, manifest destiny can be hazardous to your constitution.
        .
        Good morning DB.

        • DrB says:

          Good morning Marius,
          .
          Thank you…I just learnt something. Also, thanks for getting the very old reference up there ^. I tried a few days ago with no bites!
          .
          Perhaps it says…warning, a person’s mind stretched by a new idea can never go back to its original dimensions.

          • Marius says:

            Hee!
            .
            My mind was stretched at an early age. Unfortunately it is badly warped and the echoes are very distracting.
            .
            Warning, articles left behind are not the responsibility of the state.

    So…Native Americans were white and come from space? AWESOME!

  13. Beincent™ says:

    Where’s the fail? Where the action figure points his gun on the horse carriage drawing?

  14. LightRail says:

    How does he have an automatic shotgun in the old west ?

  15. Aja says:

    It’s a crutch, not a gun.
    *stumbles*

  16. angel_in_limbo says:

    Is this a promotional item from a Back to the Future we don’t know about? I like the added mini-totem pole for effect….nice.

    His tribal name was Dances with Ming.

  20. Razgriz Massacre (Grotesque Tragedy) says:

    Look around online you’ll find out more about this.

  21. Does anybody find the very first comment as ironically amusing as I do?

  22. RankMyTyping says:

    Come on, what do you expect for two bucks!?

  23. therris says:

    booooo! it’s the cowboy dude in the wagon. post fail.

  24. curbie54 says:

    Too bad you can tell someone has opened the package.

    Lame.

  25. Katy B says:

    OH man, I’ve come across those at Toy Joy in Austin. I’m not sure if it’s done on purpose but I’m pretty sure the store sells them for the hilarity.

    Lmao I bet they wish they had guns like that… They wouldv’e owned us when we tried to take their land lol

  32. Ninjinister says:

    I have that totem pole….

  33. Bonoriffic says:

    Please, Please, Please for the love of all that is holy, tell me im not the only on that realises that that action figure isnt even in plastic wrap and was just a case of someone desperate for attention on the interwebs <_<

    • Carrie says:

      The trouble is, even if opened, it’s /still/ in the bubble it came in, otherwise it wouldn’t fit that well. And the bubble has spots for both the shotgun and the totem pole. And as someone else noted, they’ve seen them sold in the cheap grocery store toy aisles. Sad to say, but as stupid as some people tend to be, I believe it. :p

    • curbie54 says:

      I think it’s pretty obvious the package has been opened.

  34. jake steel says:

    He’s a native american it says so on his ships computer!

  43. Shadow Mage says:

    He looks the main character from fallout. WTF?

  44. The duke says:

    Do I spy a sly Fall out 3 referance? that is totally vault boy.

  45. Leeba says:

    Gotta love the dollar stores in America. There is nothing like this in Australia. We only get Hello Kitty vibrators in the children’s section.

    Really

  46. Stuart says:

    Is it just me, or does that guy look like pip-boy from the fallout series?

  47. daemon says:

    oh man, I see this stuf all the time, china is worst for it, I gotta get a pic of this Indian American War Weapons toy I saw at dollar store, it came in 2 versions, one was a tomahawk, the other a peace pipe! I pointed it out to the owner, since like 85 percent of the people in our area are native, and thought he’d do well not to upset the “natives”. Its still for sale, along with the Lead coated native kids jewelry, and the metal hooped dream catchers, those of us that weave them love seeing those…,,

    • Cherokee Chick says:

      Hi, I live in a state where the football team is the Redskins…you wanna talk offensive? All of my malls in the area have whole stores dedicated to annoying our peoples.

  48. Guilherme Nader says:

    Why’d u think Area 51 is closed, maybe some high-techs indians or something =D

  49. booyah says:

    These are at toy joy in austin tx, haha, got one myself, they were like $2

  50. Cherokee Chick says:

    Okay, firstly, I’m almost full blood and I am whiter than that action figure. Secondly, WTF is a totem pole doing with a plains indian on the front. This toy maker got all kinds of stuff wrong.

  51. frogman says:

    This is a classic!

  52. Tristan says:

    I saw this one Jay leno :P

  53. kathryn says:

    haha i saw this on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno awhile back. He had a whole bunch of screwed up toys from a dollar store
