What Is This?
BrickArms is a company that produces figures that are remarkably similar to Lego toys. They released a line of these figures but the main controversial character is Bandit (shown above)
What Happened?
Bandit caused an uproar for apparently glorifying Islamic Terrorists...and looking so much like Lego products that Lego actually issued a statement saying they do not endorse this product.
Aftermath?
As far as I can see the figures are still being produced with no consequence
