"This special two-sided Roly Poly symbolizes the staunch alliance between the US and the UK. Prime Minister Tony Blair appears on one side, with a Union Jack across his chest. On the other side is President George W. Bush and the Star Spangled Banner. Two colour variations exist, a regular painted version and a vividly painted version." - Harmony Kingdom
