Default Finally...a real "Das Boot action figure!"

Thought this would just be a "Waiting for Guffman" joke for all eternity, but it looks like some enterprising company went ahead and made one.

It's a limited edition figure, so it's obscenely expensive, and seeing Johann in a snazzy blue uniform and not disgusted by fresh air is wrong on multiple levels, but hey, it's better than nothing.

The same store sells a naked Ken doll version of one of history’s most disturbed war criminals, just in case you thought that Ken didn’t burn enough Soviet civilians to death or shoot enough US POWs...

Yeah, seems like everyone who sells custom action figures related to Nazi Germany are bound to sell a few which are more than a little, ahem, "questionable," and not really something you'd see in a well-adjusted collector's collection.

Like Hitler, Heydrich, and Himmler

Both are modeled. I wouldn't do it but ok.
