New York, Oct 12 (ANI): After miniaturising US President Barack Obama into a doll, toy company Jailbreak Toys has come up with a Michelle Obama action figure.
Jason Feinberg of Jailbreak Toys says he thinks the First Lady doll will outdo the President’s version, which has already racked up 200,000 sales.
Feinberg, who introduced the Barack doll in November 2008, said he thinks the new one will especially appeal to girls.
Each of the Michelle doll comes with one of three dresses, all designed to show off her most famous physical trait.
“Of course, all figures will have bare arms,” The New York Daily News quoted Feinberg as saying.
The doll will hit storeshelves on Nov 20th.
However, a photo of the doll drew mixed reviews.
“It doesn’t do her justice. They should make a prettier doll because she is a prettier woman than that long-faced cartoonish thing,” said Queens resident Carl Williams, 53. (ANI)

I saw those dolls and they are not befitting the beautiful First Lady. I wouldn’t purchase one of them because they look like somebody else, not the first lady.
