Steve Jobs action figure to be available from February

Either love him or loathe him, but one just cannot not respect him. Steve Jobs passed away a few months back and during his life, he literally changed the way we compute now. At the time of his passing due to pancreatic cancer, Apple fans the world over felt a huge sense of loss. But, it appears that one toy manufacturer in a bizarre attempt to bring him back have sculpted an incredibly realistic action figure of Apple’s co-founder.

Back in 2010, another toy manufacturer had made a replica of Steve Jobs, but Apple had blocked the sales of the product and the few that had reached buyers hands became collector’s items, a report by Mercury News states. The brand who are now in the process of manufacturing this latest action figure are a Chinese company called In Icon and these 12-inch or 1:6 scale models will retail for USD 99 from February.

For this price one will get a head sculpt that looks scarily like Steve Jobs, an articulated body, three pairs of hands, two pairs of glasses, a black turtleneck and a pair of jeans. The brands website states that this action figure will be available worldwide.
