iDoll

A US toy company is putting the doll back in idol, with a “Jesus doll that quotes the Bible at the push of a button”, says this report from the LA Daily News (via christdot.org).
I could describe the historical unlikelihood of the ‘blue-eyed Jesus’ depicted, but instead I think I'd prefer to just quote the company's founder: “We are targeting the inspirational market, to do good things for children, something that adds to their quality of life and doesn't corrupt their minds.”
I personally can't see how distributing dolls which depict the ruler of the universe as a children's toy doesn't corrupt minds. One also wonders if one of the Bible passages quoted is Exodus 20:4-6.
