The Dallas Morning News reports that ABC Party has added the piñata to its latest collection, featuring Cruz with his Texas face flag and a gray shirt and jeans, an outfit that looks like what he wore when he returned to Houston last week.

The senator received outrage from both voters and fellow lawmakers for leaving Texas when his homeland was plagued by a severe winter storm.

After the setback, Cruz cut short his trip and returned to the Lone Star State, later allowed to reporters that his journey was a ‘mistake’ and that ‘in retrospect, I would not have done it.’

According to local NBC affiliate station KXAS-TV, each piñata is handmade and it takes about three to five days to complete. The 3 1/2 foot Cruz piñata has a $ 100 price tag and currently has a two-week waiting list.

The Texas senator, who has since been criticized by critics for his visit to Mexico as ‘Cancun Cruz’, responded to media attention on the incident by attribute it to a gap he says was left behind by Trump’s absence in the news cycle.

“Donald Trump has broken the media, and that’s why they do not want to do it,” Cruz said during an appearance on Conservative radio presenter Dana Loesch’s program Monday afternoon. “They just want to carry out political attacks.”

The Cruz family’s Cancun journey came when millions of people in their homeland were left without power for days amid an unusual winter storm, which brought waves of snow and icy temperatures.

According to The Associated Press, nearly 80 people died in Texas and other states affected by the storm, including deaths from storm-related car accidents, carbon monoxide poisoning, hypothermia, drowning and house fires.
