The "Fembot" doll, released in 1977, is one of the action figures that were manufactured by Kenner Products for the Bionic Woman/Bionic Man toy offerings. The Fembot character was the arch enemy of Bionic Woman. She is a female android who impersonates Jaime Sommers, the main character of Bionic Woman.
The Fembot doll has the same sculpt as the Bionic Woman doll with the exemption of the face. The face is devoid of features, but has a robotic face insert. The fembot doll came with two interchangeable masks. One mask resembles Jaime Sommers (Bionic Woman) and the other named "Mystery Woman". In addition, she also came with a red wig, scarf, and a gun.
