How Jesus Blows Off Steam

Jesus may have spent plenty of time turning water into wine and such, but you have to wonder what he did in his spare time. These figures may not be 100% historically accurate, but they do give you some idea of how he blew off steam. Both seem fairly plausible. If it wasn’t for the fact that he pre-dated internal combustion engines by a couple thousand years then these could be actual representations.

Capture a bit of the creative process with the Vincent Van Gogh Action Figure. It includes two heads, so you can choose between the insane artist who has two ears and the one that has a bandage to cover the ear he cut off. You know, I don’t care how sexy she was, was she really worth an ear? If so, more power to him.

Gnomes and various small animals are the usual garden decorations. Do something a bit different with this Easter Island Garden Statue. Gives you something to contemplate and may make your guests think you are more worldly and deeper than you really are. That alone should justify the price.
