Actor HEATH LEDGER is set to be immortalised in the form of a toy doll - with his family's blessing.

Ledger had recently finished playing The Joker in the forthcoming Batman film The Dark Knight when he passed away last month (22Jan08). However, now the range of The Joker dolls that had been planned for the film have been revealed by toy giants Mattel. The action figures are set to be marketed alongside the new movie - tipped to be this summer's (08) major blockbuster.

Two versions of the Heath joker doll will hit stores in May (08) - one comes with a rocket launcher and the second is armed with a knife.

A spokesman for the star's family says, "Heath was very proud of his work in the film and his family is aware and supportive of the plans for the movie."
