"She's hot. Did I say that out loud?"

That's Emile Vicale, CEO of Herobuilders, when asked why his newest creation is the Michele Bachmann action figure.

Minnesota Public Radio:

The $39.95 Bachmann action figure will share the catalog with Rod Blagojevich, (a $149.95 limited edition figure), Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (sporting a t-shirt that reads "Let them eat yellow cake"), Joe the Plumber (with his own custom-made crow bar), and a talking Joe Wilson, among others.

.... When asked what aspects of Bachmann "struck his fancy," Vicale said, "She's hot. Did I say that out loud? Yeah, I guess I did."

You can buy the Sarah Palin Kick Ass Action Figure, talking Joe Wilson figure, Nancy Pelosi with Waterboard (!) and others here.
