Florida mom launches petition against Toys 'R Us for carrying 'Breaking Bad' figures

[QueBert]

Makes me think about the South Park episode where all the kids are playing Games Of Throne.

 

[HeXen]

That toy is for all the ghetto kids where drug and thug life are just everyday reality. I mean how is a toy's character ever worse than your meth head parents or neighbors?...stupid dumb white soccer mom.
The higher class kids get Transformers.

How is it any worse than this?

Violence is OK.

Drugs and boobs are not.

The meth manufacturing business is nasty and extremely dangerous. I do find it a little odd that children's toys would be created, making the process seem cute and playful.

Imagine "Meth user Barbie" that would be fucking hilarious!!

Well, she basically has the body type down.

It's not a doll, it's an action figure.

I find this hilarious:

"are located in the adult action figure area of our stores."

Toys'rUs Now with more in the Adult Section!!!

Reminds me of the old days of VHS rentals with the "adult" section behind the curtain.

You've gotta teach the kids basic chemistry somehow.

He's 16. He can probably score you the real thing no prob.

When they're a bit older you can buy them this:

I couldn't help myself Just bought this one from Amazon for $15 (Toys R Us is OOS).

If it wasn't for this stuck up chick, I wouldn't have even known about the action figure, so I guess I at least owe her that

 

[mmntech]

Wait....people now have the ability to resist purchasing items that are placed in their field of view? Is this a new skill they're teaching kids in school? Amazing.

Here's another thought:
Why would the kids even want a toy for a show like that in the first place unless they had already seen the show at home?

Stupid breeds stupid, and the cycle continues as it has for countless generations.

Thank you customer, with supporters like you we are now able to make our new ISIS line of action figures for children of all ages.

I laughed out loud at the idea of Breaking Bad figurines in a toy store. Do they have Scarface dolls?

Canada would be better suited for a removal.

Then all of the USA would fall into the sea.

I can't believe anyone thought it was a good idea to even make breaking bad action figures. Its kind of funny to think about the scenarios kids would come up with when playing with them.

"...and now Heisenberg is bringing his special blue crystal meth to the drug dealers"

*walks Walter white figure up to a group of 'drug dealers' being played by transformer action figures*

"Meanwhile his wife Skyler is off having sex with her boss"

*a Barbie doll is shown lying on top of a GI Joe*

"Then Heisenburg kills everyone and takes millions of dollars from them"

*knocks transformers down*

"And everyone lives happily ever after"

*Walter white figure is shown with Barbie doll bent doggie style over a Lego block*

:biggrin:

This. All I could think was, "Breaking Bad action figures???????"

 

[Bateluer]

Where is the 'adult' section in Toys 'R Us?

 

[KeithTalent]

I would assume the majority of action figures these days are purchased by adults for themselves rather than for kids.
