DANBURY, Conn., Feb. 18 (UPI) -- Political action figure maker Herobuilders.com, of Danbury, Conn., has added Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to its stable, it said Friday.

The Condi doll, part of the "Female Heroes" collection, is outfitted in a navy blue pant suit, powder blue blouse and faux pearl necklace and sells for $24.95.

Some of the other action figures offered by Herobuilders include Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., filmmaker Michael Moore and Jesus.

I don't like it. Makes her look mannish.

Condi does have a Letterman-style gap-tooth, but it would have been more classy if the doll maker didn't reproduce it.

In any case, these doll-makers know that there's an airtight legal case against using another's image without permission, but they also know that people like Condi Rice are not going to get in a legal mudfight with them. So they get away with it.

Well, she does have more cajones than any male democrat...

[cyborg]

good point

[Joe Brower]

This will make your day!

[dead]

Oh no! They got Condi!!

[CyberAnt]

I agree with you. It makes her look too heavy, too juvenile, and unkept looking. I don't like it at all.

She is one classy lady and the doll should reflect that and not make her look like some lesbian rapper.

Does anyone else think Jesus is out of place in this crowd?

[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

I just noticed that as well. Four purely evil people are mixed in with Jesus?!

[printhead]

or Mike Tyson.

[Chode]

just DAMN!!!!

[pissant]

Zoinks!

The Hillary Doll

[Cinnamon Girl]

Too claymationy. And why can't she be wearing a skirt suit, which is what she usually wears?

[pissant]

Yep, and she has nice gams too!

[BibChr]

You stole my thought.

lol

[March I up]

Maybe they misspelled "Judas"...

[Atlas Sneezed]

Looks like they gave her the same blouse and pant suits as they gave Hillary.

Well, as a portrait artist, IMHO, these dolls are downright awful.

I was thinking that the other four were out of place being associated with the word hero. Jesus is my personal hero, as well as savior, Lord, redeemer, teacher, and friend.

I guess according to Bill Maher, I need help.
