And More Marketing Genius
By popular request, I must introduce more of the line of vonHuben action figures.........

DON’T FORGET - activate the special button, and they all pray in Latin!

Mom.......she says 20 different phrases, such as “money doesn’t grow on trees!”, “autodidact is not a dirty word” and “feeling Punic is not what’s ailing you, Mister.” Collect as many of her outfits as you want. They are all cotton and they all look alike. (shoes with bows included!)

Dad.........he looks like Ward Cleaver - hypnotized by a Macintosh

Fran..........she’s very attractive - if you can see her! (Save big by buying Fran and Bridget in the Irish Twins super-saver pak! Their clothes are interchangable - and a major source of interpersonal conflict)

Chaz..........he’s Tourettic, complete with socially acceptable tics. (it takes more than a neurological disorder to make us speak like the Osbournes.) Except for some social anxiety, he’s the life of the party. Comes complete with 30 bright quotes from Chesterton to Bart Simpson!

Adam..........the rakish next door neighbor. Always the perfect comic foil. If he didn’t live next door, we would have to invent him.

AND DON’T MISS OUR ETHNIC DIVERSITY LINE.........
If you’ve started with Chinese Ed and Jerry, continue on with Swiss cousin Urs and Aussie cousin Phil.

DON’T STOP.....GET THE ACCESSORIES........
Mom’s rusted van with genuine simulated peeling blue paint. Has 96,000 miles on it - just from driving to Church, the library and Target.

Dad’s groovy Amigo. Put enough of your action figures in and it becomes a clown car.

AND THE PETS........
The laundry room frog..........
Dipstick the adorable gerbil...........

COMING FOR CHRISTMAS 2002...........
The vonHuben’s shabby/chic dream duplex.
Some assembly required.
