One of the vendors at this week’s Toy Fair is offering the “Smash-Me Bernie,” a $99.95 Madoff lookalike doll that wears a devil-red suit and carries a pitchfork. It comes with its own hammer — so you can pulverize it.
Phoenix, Ariz.-based ModelWorks is behind the caricature Mini-Me figures, which can be customized to look like celebrities or whomever a buyer chooses.
Madoff was arrested in December after investigators said he confessed to his sons that he had swindled investors of $50 billion in a Ponzi scheme.
The toy fair is open only to the industry and runs through Wednesday.

Proceeds benefit the Madoff Defense Team
there still making a big deal about this ganof? How much attention will he still get?
they should give the money to madoff victims.
I think you could burn an effigy of him for less than half of that. $100 for a stupid toy. Unbelievable.
you just stick your paycheck into the doll’s shirt pocket and watch it grow
Investors who lost big bucks with Madoff can now “avenge” their losses against
Bernie with the new “Smash Bernie” doll *guaranteed* to ameliorate anxiety, pain,
feelings of revenge or double your money back.
