Even taking out some frustration against Bernie Madoff will cost you.

A vendor at this year's toy fair inNew York is selling a Bernie Madoff doll for $99.95.

The "Smash-Me Bernie" lookalike doll wears a devil red-suit, carries a pitchfork, and golden hammer.

Madoff, as you may know, is charged with running a huge, $50 billion money swinddling scheme that cost many people and some charities a significant portion of their savings.

Madoff, who is currently under house arrest, is expected in court by mid-March.
