One of the most memorable characters in movie history, the 40-year-old virgin Andy Stitzer has now been immortalized in this finely sculpted talking figure. Sculpted by famed American artist Paul Brooke, this talking doll says nine different lines from the hit movie, "The 40 Year Old Virgin," in Andy’s own voice. He proudly stands with hands on hips, wearing nothing but his boxer shorts and a smile. His chest hair has been recently waxed. Hear Andy Say ... "It loses its value if you take it out of its packaging!" "Is it true that if you don't use it, you lose it?" and many more memorable lines.

TDmonthly Review:
What Is It?
The collector collected: This 7” high vinyl figure is a miniature replica of Andy Stitzer, the 40-year-old collector of miniature replicas whose obsession with teeny tiny vinyl men prolonged his virginity. Sculpted by Paul Brooke, little Andy looks startlingly like big Andy (Steve Carell) from the hit film, “The 40 Year-Old Virgin,” thanks to true-to-life details such as an overdeveloped schnoz and underdeveloped physique. Andy is dressed fetchingly in navy blue dotted-swiss boxers with brown anklets and matching shoes. He comes post-wax job, with a nice smiling face etched into his manly chest fur. He stands jauntily on a talking plinth that’s activated with a red hot button, emitting nine phrases from the movie, such as “I’m shyyyyyyy!” and “You know, guys … this is not a good look for me!” in Carrell’s own voice.

What We Thought
He’s cute, he’s little and he’ll go anywhere you want him to … what’s not to love? The sculpting and paint job are high quality and his confidently unconfident pose is instantly endearing. Taking the talking Andy doll at his own word (“It loses its value if you take it out of its packaging.”) I couldn’t quite bear to “open him up” but since his own clear packaging has a finger hole near the plinth to access the hot button and a perforated top to allow for maximum sound transmission, there’s really no need. Besides, the package insert is illustrated with scenes and dialogue from the movie, which only adds to the fun.

Why They’ll Want It
The 40 Year-Old Virgin Talking Doll should reach a wide demographic: guys who laughed their guts out during the movie, gals who fantasized about “curing” Andy, and 40-year-old collectors who can finally collect themselves. It’s a perfect gag gift and would be a great distraction from office work when plopped next to the computer. Which is why I’m taking this one, Boss.
