It has been a long time since something like this has caught my eye. The Ozaki iMini Pet is merely a dancing flower connected to a clock radio/iPod dock. The difference between it and the dancing flower that I bought when I was in high school is that it’s a full-sized plush animal.

The reason that this display caught my eye, however, is because of the Obama doll sitting at the top of the pyramid of dancing stuffed animals. Here is a video I took of them dancing:

They never labeled him as an Obama doll, but he was dancing along to a speech made by Obama. When was the last time a president had a plush animal made in his image? Teddy Roosevelt?

I don’t know if this is just manufacturers cashing in on the Obama popularity or if it is a statement about our president. Seeing this dancing Obama doll made me happy and that’s why I filmed a quickie video of it. Here is a better video from the Ozaki website:

I wasn’t able to find a place where you could buy the iMini Pet. If any of spot them at stores or on Amazon, leave a comment here.
