Ruth Bader Ginsburg Action Figures Are Coming Out This Fall

Question– when is it socially acceptable to start embracing fall? You see, I went into Hobby Lobby the other day and noticed the almighty fall decor out. I was SO tempted to fill my cart up, but my sister convinced me that it was still too early. She suggested I wait until September, so that’s my plan. September 1st, I’m going full blown FALL. I’m going to transform. Think of Cinderella’s transformation, except opposite. Everything I touch will turn into a pumpkin form of something. (I’m already running pumpkin candles. Judge.)

Apparently, there’s something else I should be excited for this fall, but I’m not. It unfortunately has nothing to do with pumpkins and everything to do with Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

RBG action figures. Yes, really.

Via The Hill:

A company that created a successful Kickstarter campaign to make a Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg action figure says it is planning to ship the products in October.

Fctry, a product incubator based in Brooklyn, N.Y., initially hoped to raise $15,000 to create the “Notorious RBG” superhero but instead raised over $613,700 on its Kickstarter crowdfunding page.

Don’t ask me why people donated to that. It’s probably the same people who donated to Peter Strzok. Let’s be honest.

The company said on its Kickstarter page that the action figure will include “wire-rimmed glasses to see through the patriarchal bullsh*t” and a “righteous robe, the next best thing to a cape.”

Fctry also said on the page that it plans to make a $1 donation for each of the 15,654 people who donated to the campaign to the “She’s The First” organization, which is a nonprofit group based in New York City that strives to fight gender inequality through education.

The responses are too much.

Action figure? I did not know falling asleep during testimony was part of the action

Does it come in sleep mode and are batteries sold separately? pic.twitter.com/jPQVUwN0yg

Sold separately, I’m sure.

The sad thing is, some people will buy this, and we share their air.

SMH.
