Early Christmas Gift Tip: Nesting Dolls

I know, I know, Christmas is five months away, but I've heard rumors that some super-organized, anal retentive types begin their holiday shopping weeks, even months before the big date (instead of 11:30 p.m. Christmas Eve at the Snack-N-Pak convenience store, like yours truly. Or should that be yours Muley?)

Anyway, in case you need some ideas for unique Christmas presents, there's a number of nifty Russian nesting dolls available online. These are wooden dolls that open up to reveal a smaller wooden doll inside, and so on and so on, ad infinitum.

Here's just a few available designs to please a wide variety of tastes. If there's a budding Socialist on your gift list, or someone who is sympathizing with those poor maligned terrorists who were forced to kill innocent people in New York, Washington, D.C., and London, how about this inspiring collection of great dictators of history?...


But maybe you've got some music lovers on your list. How about getting them these adorable nesting dolls to spruce up the mantle? The Osbournes...


The Boss...


Those wild guys from Kiss (I think the tiny black doll is actually their makeup case)...


And finally, you not only love her music, but her kooky politics as well. Here's Barbra (although I think the one in the middle looks more like Helen Hunt)...


Political afficianados on your list might appreciate this collection of Bill's gals...


I think John Kerry had this set of nesting dolls created before the 2004 votes were counted...


If you're a movie fan, get this set while it lasts. I hear Angelina Jolie already has one (but it got broken, somehow)...


Finally, if you're married to a hunter who needs some target practice, try these...


There's even more to choose from if you visit this website. And no, I don't get any commissions on sales.

UPDATE: The Nightfly, his Jersey brain wheels always spinning, provides this suggestion: "They should make a set of Elvis, where he goes from Old Elvis to Young Elvis as the dolls get smaller and smaller. Or Blog Babe dolls based on traffic: Michelle Malkin, Dawn Eden, the Cotillion, and so on..."

What about it, Cotillion gals? I definitely think Stacy at Not a Desperate Housewife should be one of them.
