Darn it, I was looking forward to having my very own Steve Jobs iVoodoo Doll; guess I'll have to use a Ken Doll, instead. Either way, anatomically, there probably wouldn't have been any difference.

I believe if this actually went to court they would have a case, seeing as you can't actually copywright a person. I'm under the impression the In Icons could not afford to shell out the amount it would cost for legal support against Apple, so they had to cave. It really is a shame.

Who bets some of them get *stolen* and sold on ebay for thousands of dollars?

I guess Apple would probably sell it themselves for $299...

what's so bad in being idolized to the point that they are going to live in the world using an action figure? isnt it so overwhelming if i can see people down there on earth wanting a piece of me. i feel proud i made a great dent in that universe.
