I of course do not collect GI Joes, but just happened to see this one while searching for something completely unrelated.

I don't know, that's either the most awesome action figure I've ever seen or a huge insult to the Swiss Guard and Catholicism...

I figured I'd rather have my kids playing with that kind of doll rather than Gone with the Wind Barbie and Ken. I found it interesting that the company that puts them out does historic Italian Army models as well. I'll bet they had to pay a licensing fee to the Swiss Guard.

You might have a vocation if...

When other children played with Barbies, you played with Swiss Guard dolls.

I have a Pope Innocent action figure.
I think it's Innocent III. Which one defined papal infallibility?

Yea, it's him.
He sits beside all my religious books in the prime spot in my room. :)

So where did you get it?
EDIT: the action figure, I mean.

It was a gift. I don't know where it came from, actually.

One of my husband's friend bought a Jesus action figure. It was just so strange. He got it at a flea market.
