Because a Villain’s Not a Villain ‘Til You Can Buy 2, Get 1 Free.

You gotta admire a guy who can throw a blanket over $50 billion and make it disappear.

Pay tribute to this modern-day Svengali by investing in your very own Bernie Madoff action figure. For a paltry $149.99, you’ll get plenty more than did the overeager speculators that hosed Madoff with their hard-earned savings: a plastic doll with a fistful of cash, and a wristwatch plated in 24-karat gold!

Hard-up? Aren’t we all. Scale down with the $110 variant. He’s not as snappily-dressed, but he does come with a hammer the size of his head.

Big-ups to @bloggersblog for the links.
