Sirubia

Napi kedvenc kreatív őrült című rovatunkban a Filozófus Akciófigurák megalkotóját és miniprojectjét szeretném bemutatni. Ian Vandewalker még filozófia szakosként vezette le szakmai frusztrációit az alábbi játékfigura-koncepció megalkotásával. Az alábbiak szigorúan utánközléssel:

“Aristotle
384-322 B.C.E.
Nationality: Greek
Group Alliances:

• “Angry” Ancients
• “Vicious” Virtue Ethicists

AKA:

• Careless Aristotle
• “Spare Us” Aristotle
• Aris-Total Destruction
• “Beware His Throttle” Aristotle
• The Philosopher

Powers: walking
Weaknesses: some people think maybe he could have taught Alexander the Great a little more about diplomacy.
Notes: The high quality of this product is ensured by the four causes at work in the manufacture of the toy: the plastic, the assembly line robots, the designers’ creative ideas, and the profit from retail sales to spoiled children. Also, the following reasoning establishes that children will love the Aristotle action figure: All Philosophical Powers® figures are totally awesome. This toy is a Philosophical Powers® figure. Therefore, this toy is totally awesome.

Immanuel Kant
1724-1804
Nationality: Prussian
Group Alliances:

• “Terrible” Transcendental Idealists
• “Destructive” Deontologists
• “Contemptible” Constructivists

AKA:

• Hometown Manny
• The Punctual Prussian
• The Virgin
• The Categorical Imperator
• I’ve Fallen and I Kant Get Up
• The Greatest Modern Philosopher

Powers: Follows rules well, can leap as high as hundreds of times his own height.
Weaknesses: Sometimes seen as overly critical.
Notes: This figure is, of course, only the phenomenal Kant toy. The deluxe version, Noumenal Self® Kant, is available only on special order and costs $339.95 (plus tax and S&H).

The reader may wonder, “Why is Kant blue with red tiger stripes?” Well, why twelve categories? I don’t know. It was decided that a toy representing as important a philosopher as Kant ought to be unique in some way, that there ought to be some kind of toyly manifestation of his philosophical greatness. Blue with red tiger stripes was deemed sufficiently bad ass.”
