    Yup, Yoko Ono has done it again. Is there ANYTHING she won't do for a buck (or a few million?).

    Now she's authorized a John Lennon action figure that talks!

    Oh, yes, John may be gone but his words will live on.

    Thanks Yoko for showing us just how low you can go.

    You're welcome to turn this into the "I hate Yoko Ono" thread. But beware! Her lawyers are vicious predators.

    UPDATE:The original website claiming to sell the doll, now says it's not authorized and has removed the page & info from their site. But the yahoo link above still has the story (until Yoko's lawyers get it removed).

    I can just IMAGINE what Plastic Lennon will say...

    "Give Plastic A Chance!"

    "I'm more popular than Barbie!"

    "All you need is plastic!"

    "It was 25 years ago today, that Yoko Ono got to play... with my estate"

    At least we know that she's a sad person. Nothing she ever does will ever change the way we feel about John Lennon, and what he left behind for us, in his music, his outlook on life, and the vision that we all have the potential to make this world better. Eventually, Yoko will pass on,(touch wood, may she live a long life) but what will people remember her for? I dread to think. Let her enjoy her money, if it's so important to her. It's a shame that she can't buy enlightenment with it.

    Another line from the doll:

    "there's nothing you can sell that can't be sold"

    Pathetic :(

    She was (and still is in a some way ) controling his public image, his finances and all his life .. No wonder he killed her Mommy ..

    I thought the Nike shoes weren't enough .. :(

    A screaming banshee is more like it. Possibly the most unlistenable music I have ever heard. I think perhaps that's what she was going for. If not, she is pathetic.

    Damn, that's a bit too much. Considering it has been 25 years since his death, there is simply no reason to have dolls and such to make a buck. I'm sure she's got plenty from ages ago, why would you want more? I guess there was more to her "love" than we already knew except John. Now I see in a totally different light. I have been watching "Imagine" and "Year in Peace" and thought how much in love they were, thinking I want that. Yet I would never make it for more than love. That's disgusting especially since he has long past. That's horrible.

    yeah that sucks...

    but think, who's going to be buying these dolls? its not going to be no twelve year old teeny boppers, obviously. i dont think it will become a giant fad to collect plastic john lennon dolls :rolleyes:. the people who buy these are probably going to be older folks who grew up with the beatles, they'll buy them for themselves and their grandchildren, and may turn their grandchildren onto the beatles, surely thats not a bad thing.

    I think the shoes were a bad idea. I'd never buy something like that. I actually hadn't even heard of those until reading it here.
    But a John Lennon figure is actually kind of cool, something I would buy maybe for my little brother or someone like that.
    And why would someone start a thread on hipforums for people to talk about how much they hate somebody? That is what is pathetic... Anyway, I think some of her songs are really cool. Pardon me for disagreeing with everyone.
