This [limited edition toy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/san-diego-comiccon) is truly mind-boggling. The Jesus Astronaut Figure was designed by the Argentinian crew DOMA and features none other than Jesus in a bright yellow space suit. He is also quite reminiscent to a Simpson's character with his bright yellow skin! He wears some rockin' red moon boots and even has a large oxygen tank strapped to his back. The toy is about the size of a Barbie and features an [astronaut helmet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/night-light-projectors) that can be taken on and off.

The description for the Jesus Astronaut Figure by the Toy Digger website states that "after a long journey from outer space, Jesus returns for the second time with his message of love, unity and peace to the people of earth."
