Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, who has been fighting a Russian invasion since February, is being made into an action figure by a product design company in Brooklyn, New York.

FCTRY launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund production less than two weeks ago. It hit its US$30,000 (RM133,000) funding goal in just three hours and has since raised over US$120,000 (RM533,000). For every figure sold, US$1 (RM4.40) goes to Ukraine in the campaign which ends on Friday.
