Butta bing butta boom.I once heard a pastor say that when Christianity began in the Middle East, it was a religion. When it came to Europe, it became a culture. When it arrived in the United States, it became an enterprise. Biblical "action figures" are just another example.

Thank you for your support and interest in our toy line. Our toys are manufacturer in China and currently we are not set up to ship to Europe.
Have a Blessed Day!

I have questions regarding the ethics involved in production before I can show support. So I am afraid I must say that my questions were not intended as support, but inqueries as to whether or not such support would be valid.
It is my belief that it is imperative that we as Christians show love and stewardship in every aspect of our lives and businesses. Therefore it is very important to me as a Christian to ensure that I do not only live a life pleasing to the Lord in that I abstain from sin, but in that whatever I do be pleasing to Him. Including the goods I purchase.
I would be quite pleased should you provide evidence that your action figures are produced in an ethically conscious way - a way which spreads the gospel to the workers who also make the toys.
I hope you understand my desire to verify the origins of potential purchases.
Thank you once again for your reply.
God bless, and have a wonderful day!

Hm.It's sold at wal-mart of course it's made in china.
Let's see Christians have now turned all of their holiest days into commercial successes and now they are making money off of their holy figures.
Somehow I sense an atheist will be blamed for this.
Argh, ok I edited my post, I didn't mean to give the impression that ALL christians would blame people for this..Hm.
I don't seek to blame anyone
I am grieved by what Christmas has become. For some time it was a Christian holiday, now it is not. Now it's all about consumption.
It grieves me deeply what it has become.
It's turning your religion into a novelty.Is it just me, or is there something vaguely appalling about commemorating the birth of the son of God (whose life on earth would inspire countless acts of compassion and benevolence) by drowning our offspring in disposable, media-hyped novelties assembled by disposable children forced to toil in slave-labor sweatshops; moreover, paying for the grisly merchandise with currency that embodies a perfectly amoral system of socio-economic exploitation, based on the wickedly devious lies of enlightened self-interest. Yet, somehow, the garish spectacle appears rational and even altruistic because we idiotically believe the psychotic ramblings of economists who are, ostensibly, the real deities of this shameless pretense for civilization. Oh well....... it's probably just me.
I am insulted. Deeply. More so, I am grieved. I wrote this article on it last year:Argh, ok I edited my post, I didn't mean to give the impression that ALL christians would blame people for this..

You should be insulted.
