If you’re looking for a unique addition to your workspace, consider the newly unveiled Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) action figure. This collectible not only adds a touch of inspiration but also serves as a daily reminder that hope still exists amid the chaos that often surrounds us. The description of this figure captures her essence perfectly: “There’s a new force in the Democratic Party. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been called a game changer, a radical, a firebrand. But mostly, people just call her AOC.”
Brooklyn’s FCTRY, a product design studio, launched a successful Kickstarter campaign to produce this action figure, surpassing their original goal of $15,000 by a remarkable $25,000, ultimately raising nearly $40,000. With over 1,300 backers, many will soon proudly showcase their AOC figures. If you hurry, you can still snag one for a donation of $20 or more, with 28 days left in the campaign.
For those willing to contribute over $20, FCTRY offers additional perks. For example, a donation of $40 grants you both an AOC and a Bernie Sanders action figure, or you might opt for an AOC paired with an Elizabeth Warren figure, showcasing some serious female empowerment on your desk.
If you’re a dedicated collector, consider the $100 contribution for the collector’s set, which includes not only AOC but also Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, former President Barack Obama, and Kamala Harris—quite the lineup!
FCTRY’s action figures are designed in collaboration with Seattle-based artist Mike Leavitt. The company aims to connect each figure to a social cause that aligns with its real-life counterpart. With AOC’s figure, they plan to support the Sunrise Movement, an organization advocating for the Green New Deal, which resonates with her values.
With the campaign successfully funded, anticipation builds for the arrival of the AOC action figure, knowing that your contribution will also support a greater cause.
