Those who can't get enough of Sarah Palin can now choose from among three action figures, showing the Republican vice-presidential nominee as a businesswoman, a muscled gun-toting superhero and a naughty schoolgirl.
Connecticut-based HeroBuilders.com told the New York Times that it hasn't seen such sales since 2003 when it brought out Baghdad Bob — Mohammad Said al-Sahhaf, the Iraqi information minister.
The Alaska governor's action dolls have been available for about a week.
The company offers a wide range of dolls, including a Barack Obama muscled beach blanket and a John McCain action figure. The toys sell for between $27.95 US and $29.95 US each.
