Target (aka, "that fine French emporium, Tar-jay") has a line of historical dolls. From the Presidents collection, here we have an example.

President Franklin Roosevelt.


Wow. This isn't one of my photoshop efforts, unfortunately. It's exactly what I see on screen right now.
The text is better.

• 25 different phrases in the Presidents own Voice! -- Aside from the remarkable achievement recording that guy's voice would be, Bob weeps. Also, what's with the capital 'V'? The rest of the text is sentence case...


• include an individually numbered certificate of authenticity -- That I would like to see.


• a biographical pamphlet that includes rare photos -- They would have to be.


• a comprehensive timeline specific to each figure. -- Or to some figure, anyway.


• period correct clothing that has been hand tailored to suit the figure -- because lord knows this President wouldn't wear off-the-rack

Wow how realistic, after all it's common knowledge that Franklin Roosevelt was so poor he had to wear his forefather's clothes..

On the other hand I'm tempted to get this one just to have a Ben Franklin action figure, that uhm.. talks. in his own voice and with photos.
