This Michele Bachmann Action Figure Scares Me
Is it just me, or does this action figure not seem entirely white? And a little bit creepy?

Connecticut company unveils Michele Bachmann action figure
by Madeleine Baran, Minnesota Public Radio
September 25, 2009

St. Paul, Minn. — Rep. Michele Bachmann has attracted national media attention for her denunciation of ACORN and for suggesting that President Obama might be "anti-American," but on Friday she achieved a new level of celebrity status -- in the form of her own action figure.

The Connecticut-based toy company Herobuilders plans to release the doll today on its website.

The $39.95 Bachmann action figure will share the catalog with Rod Blagojevich, (a $149.95 limited edition figure), Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (sporting a t-shirt that reads "Let them eat yellow cake"), Joe the Plumber (with his own custom-made crow bar), and a talking Joe Wilson, among others.

Emil Vicale, CEO of Herobuilders, said that choosing who gets to be an action figure can be difficult.
