Jewish conspiracy? The only Jewish conspiracy I know is the one that kept me from finding out before now about this 10 Plagues of Egypt Plush Toy Set.
It includes, and I quote:
A spooky eyed drop of bloodYou may want to call to make sure the plagues'll arrive at your doorstep in time for Passover.
A Frog for frogs’Äîof course
A Giant Lice for lice.
Cow for cattle disease
Black Locust for locusts
A white satin lump of hail
A black cube of darkness
An icky boil on a piece of flesh!
A snarling lion's head for wild beasts
and last of all a very sad head - for death of the first born.
Best of all, they're 20% off. Because avoiding the plague of retail is the most important lesson of all.
On Sale!

Oh man, as we were scouring the internet for Passover picks for Cool Mom Picks, we found this plus the "ten plagues mask set." Frogs? Cute. Locusts? Fine. But there was just something about the X's in the place of eyes on the "killing of the first-born" mask that made it seem a bit...uncomfortable. A sad head is an improvement.
Also, there are the Ten Plagues Finger Puppet Set, wich I think we'll be getting, so that we can talk about more than just the tiger, monkey and giraffe finger puppets:

I hate to nit pick, but isn't "louse" the singular form of "lice"?
[hate to nit pick. nicely done. -ed.]
I bought this as a gift for a friend (don't ask) a few years ago, and I can vouch that it is as disturbing and hilarious as pictured. Even better, half the toys have pull-strings to make them vibrate. Definitely a quality gift.
