Presidential Candidate Cabbage Patch Kids

Tue, Oct 28, 2008

Beyond Toys, custom, plush

I thought the Pinkerton FX Zombie Hamsters were creepy, well they got nothing on these dolls. The company that makes the Cabbage Patch Kids is celebrating twenty five years of misleading children about their origin (yeah, come on…babies born in a cabbage patch, we all know that storks bring us home). And how does the Cabbage Patch Doll people opt to celebrate a quarter of a century of baby makin’? Why with totally creepy Cabbage Patch representations of the current presidential and vice-presidential candidates. They created one-of-a-kind handcrafted dolls of Sarah Palin, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and John McCain. Where oh where can you get one of them for yourself you might ask? They will be up for auction starting this Thursday on eBay and the auction will end on November 4th, election day. The proceeds from the auction will all go to the US Marine Corps Toys for Tots Foundation.
