For Apple fans worldwide, Steve Jobs is their hero.
Now, he’s been given a tribute usually accorded to superheroes: An action figure has been made in his likeness.
The doll, which was created by Chinese company In Icons, will be released in February, but can be pre-ordered now.
Of course, you’ll have to wait a bit until the Web site comes back up. It seems rabid Jobs fans have overwhelmed the company with visits.
If that’s the case, the fans who stay long enough to buy a doll will be shelling out big bucks for the 12-inch collectible:
The figurine, which comes dressed in Jobs’s signature black turtleneck and New Balance shoes, costs $99.
Placing your order right now may be a gamble, though, according to The Next Web.
Writes Drew Olanoff, “It’s unlikely that this action figure will see the light of day, since it’s not an authorized product.
I’m sure that the Jobs family will have something to say about its release, but man this thing is impressive.”
The Jobs family successfully blocked the company MiC Gadget from selling Steve Jobs dolls in 2010.
