    Coming soon: a Michele Bachmann action figure?

    By Joe Kimball | Published Wed, Sep 23 2009 8:34 am

    Action figure maker Herobuilders.com has a spot on its web site -- between the Joe Wilson Action Figure (at right), Sarah Palin Kick Ass Action Figure, the Sarah Palin Action Girl and the Original Obama Action Figure Complete with Sound -- reserved for Minnesota's 6th District U.S. representative.

    "Coming soon: The Michele Bachmann Action Figure."

    They also sell Joe the Vice President, Joe the Plumber, lots more Sarah Palin figures, including Sarah Palin School Girl ($35.95) and Mrs. Obama with the Fantastic Evening Dress ($49.95).

    The company says its doll was the one featured in last fall's "Doonesbury" sequence on the Sarah Palin Action Figure.

    Others in their line-up: Rod Blagojevich, Bernie Madoff, John Edwards or Dick Cheney.

    So far, though, no Travelin' Tim Pawlenty.
