  1. Will there be any restrictions like with Daz's Anne Marie Goddard figure ?
    I ask because something like this could be used, for example poltical humour that some folks may not like very much (waves and agrees with Seatletim).  

 

No, ther will be no restrictions. Bush is a public figure and, as such, ge is fair game for likenesses, etc. Once he's out of office, it will be another story tho, becasue he will return toi being a private citizen. Bill clinton might be a problem because he is a private citizen. Hillary, however, being a senator, is a public figure. Same with Blair and Howard (prime ministers of, respectively, the UK and Australia) and any other currently serving world leaders.
As much as I'd like to see a Vicente Fox figure, that might not be possible as he is no longer president of Mexico and is back to private citizen status.
Any dead presidents are also fair game as the private citizen laws only cover the living.
As for the political humor, that woyld be covered by the constitution so the fact that people didn't like it would be irrelevant (every president without exception, from washington on up, has been subjected to it ).
