Blasphemy, it has been observed (correctly), is a victimless crime. Making a toy of any sacred figure carries the potential of offense, sure, but only in other people; and people as a general collective tend to have an absurdly low offense threshold about anything you care to imagine. If not a Jesus doll, then ownership of a special rock or something equally silly. Regardless, I rather suspect the video is a parody of sorts, blasphemy notwithstanding.
As a side note, it may be of some interest that here in the UK, blasphemy law was repealed in May 2008. Almost four years, during which time nobody noticed any difference - except for a greater freedom of expression.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
