Inflatable statues of dead whitefolks on pedestals to be used at picnics, in the pool or on the Fourth to express patriotism once the real ones are permanently wiped from involuntary view and are nestled safely inside special museums.
I brought all my Patriot Inflatables to my family reunion and let me tell you something, they were a big hit!

From the classic, campy Batman: The Movie starring Adam West. Robin (Burt Ward) had a habit of making strange exclamations (Holy Polaris, Holy Sardine, Holy Captain Nemo... you get the idea.
At one point in the movie, Batman is attacked by--you guessed it--an inflatable shark, against which he must defend himself whilst the faithful Robin runs to get the shark-repellent bat spray.
Should be exclaimed loudly and dramatically, for maximum campy effect.
Holy inflatable shark, Batman! Some days, you just can't get rid of a bomb.
