Deluxe Librarian Action Figure
If you just can't get enough of the Dewey decimals or if you go bananas for books, chances are you have a Librarian Action Figure. Nancy Pearl's likeness made history as the best selling Librarian Action Figure of all time, but the true collector needs this Deluxe Edition. Each 5" tall, hard vinyl figure is dressed in a stylish burgundy outfit and comes in a library diorama with a reference desk, computer, book cart, multiple book stacks and some loose books, including a tiny plastic replica of Nancy's latest, Book Lust 2. Press the button on her back for the infamous "amazing shushing action!"
Apparently people still don't get that Nancy Pearl is a real person and this is what she looks like. She is not some dumb stereotype, she is a real honest to goodness librarian. Thus this new version of her action figure with a more vibrantly colored suit and more timely reading suggestions. At least she still "shushes"!
Here's what else McPhee.com had to say about this figure - Our Nancy Pearl Librarian Action Figure is not only one of our best selling items, it is also, surprisingly, one of our most controversial. A
few complained that the figure presented a stereotype of the librarian as dowdy and stern, so we are using our new DELUXE version to address some of the concerns. Her outfit is now a rich burgundy color and she comes with a diverse selection of books and a reference computer. She does, however, still shush.
I simply must have one!
