Herobuilders, Company That Made Anatomically Correct Anthony Weiner Doll, Makes Michele Bachmann Doll

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) - They're at it again.

Herobuilders, the company that brought New Yorkers the anatomically correct Anthony Weiner doll, has now produced a "build your own" Michele Bachmann doll.

The company has also produced a Jimmy McMillan doll.

The Michele Bachmann doll features a wide smiling, blue eyed brunette. You can choose her outfit. Selections include traditional red, white or blue skirt suits or a blue pant suit. For the more adventurous, there's a "X-raider" action outfit featuring a .45 caliber pistol and miniskirt, or of course, a school girl outfit.

You can also choose to give your Michele Bachmann doll an optional Blackberry, necklace and earrings.

You can order the doll here for $39.95.

"We launched the Michele Bachmann doll two years ago. She's been out for two years already," Emil Vicale, President of Herobuilders.com said. She's gotten better looking over the course of plastic campaign, though.

"Our original Michele Bachmann was not as beautiful as the current Michele Bachmann doll. She's had plastic surgery, so to speak," Vicale said.

Why change the design?

"The other one looked a little run-down, we really don't try to change the face of the folks," Vicale said.

That said, looks haven't impacted her sales.

"She's been a consistent seller, Vicale said. "She's no Sarah Palin, but she sells very well."

Who else sells well? The Anthony Weiner doll.

"99.9999 percent ordered the enhanced model," Vicale said. "He continues to sell on a daily basis, which is pretty cool. He doesn't sell like he did last time, when they crashed our server."

Vicale said there are no plans to release an anatomically correct Bachmann doll.
