Annals Of Unauthorized Celebrity Images: Ben Affleck, Rogue Cop
A reader was surprised to find Ben Affleck's square-jawed good looks gracing this cheaply made toy's packaging at a Chicago flea market, but shook off the momentary disorientation (no, he's probably not that hard up for cash) and snapped it up for our amusement. (She was further surprised that she couldn't take advantage of the depressed market for the actor's services and haggle the vendor down to fifty cents, and had to pony up a buck for this piece of obviously unauthorized Affleck memorabilia.) Perhaps even more jarring than Affleck's unconvincing portrayal of a toy-endorsing cop in his new medium, Flimsy Cardboard Backing Theater, is that his rogue cop would include a hand grenade in his crimefighting arsenal. We'd always pegged Ben as more of a tazer guy.
We expect Endeavor agent Patrick Whitesell to start working the phones and make sure that he gets Affleck into the feature version of Police Sparkling Gun Playset before the part to goes to someone with a little more heat on his career, like Dax Shepard.
A close-up of Affleck in that dashing police cap follows after the jump.
