The latest trend coming to a Toys ‘R’ Us near you: war-on-terror toys! I remember thinking my little brother’s Star Wars Legos were way cooler than the traditional generic red, blue, and yellow Lego bricks I had. But now Legos have gotten even better and more realistic with BrickArms’s Kops, Bandits, and Marines! (H/T The Arabist) Kids can now buy patriotic Marines to fight the turbaned, hand-grenade-bearing bandits. The Marines wear WW2-era uniforms, but these Legos totally work to play “war on terror,” don’t you think? Buy them for your kids now–before American children grow up thinking that it’s too mean to wiretap the terrorists. FYI, you also get a free weapon with every order. I bet Goldfarb is ordering a set right now…
