New York -- A New York man who found success with his President Barack Obama action figures said a plastic figure of first lady Michelle Obama is soon due in stores.

Sculptor Jason Feinberg said the Michelle Obama action figure, due to be released Nov. 20 for $12.99, comes with three outfits based on the dresses she wore during various appearances since the start of her husband's presidential campaign, the Chicago Tribune reported Wednesday.

Michelle Obama's office declined to comment on the toy.

Feinberg said his company, Jailbreak Toys, has thus far sold 200,000 of its President Obama action figures "and it's still selling."

The sculptor said he is an avowed Obama fan and he hopes the first couple see the dolls as compliments.
