Think Barbie's a vacuous whore and Action Man's a vacant meathead?

Well if you want to give your child another lifestyle and indeed gender choice, you now have another toy option.

 

The RuPaul Doll. That's right, the Elton John duetting, Mac modeling, TV hosting Drag Supermodel has just launched his/her doll that is advertised as 99% plastic and 1% real woman.

The 13 inches of collectible plastic comes in three versions available to order - rather incredibly - at toysrus.com. The Supermodel RuPaul, the Glamazon RuPaul and the Red Hot RuPaul (who comes suited up in her own red leather bodice and thigh-high boots), should give your little 'uns hours of gender-bending fun (beats the suburban Bratz anyday).

Celeb snapper Mike Ruiz has even shot a series of life-size photos of the doll, which will be displayed in a private exhibition at some point; but for most of us, all you need to do is drive along to your local retail park toy-superstore and pick up a tranny. Which should hopefully be the first time you've done such a thing.

The RuPaul Doll - 99% Plastic, 1% Woman
