The Bernie Toy
from Haaretz:
N.Y. toy fair markets Madoff look-alike doll
Mad at disgraced financier Bernard Madoff? There’s a toy just for you.
One of the vendors at this week’s Toy Fair is offering the Smash-Me Bernie, a $99.95 Madoff lookalike doll that wears a devil-red suit and carries a pitchfork. It comes with its own hammer – so you can pulverize it.
Phoenix, Arizona-based ModelWorks is behind the caricature Mini-Me figures, which can be customized to look like celebrities or whomever a buyer chooses.
