Nazi controversy

In October 2004 a Plan B Toys action figure depicting a Totenkopf Panzer division officer, licensed from the video game Call of Duty, came under fire. A Canadian customer complained that the figure glorified the Nazi party and demanded that the figure be removed from store shelves. A representative for Plan B explained that the figure was intended to be a faithful reproduction of a historical figure and a video game character, and was in no way intended to support any political idea or ideology. Regardless, the company agreed to recall the figures.
