Steve Jobs
London, Jan 3: Just three months after the death of Apple Inc co-founder and former CEO Steve Jobs, he has been immortalised as a 12-inch action figure by a pair of toy companies. [Read:Iconic Moments of Indian Sports in 2011]

The action figure named 'iCEO mini' has been made in tribute to the late Apple CEO.[Read:Major events, top news of 2011]

According to a Daily Mail report, the action figure features Jobs' trademark black turtleneck, jeans and sandshoes. The report further claimed that the figure will go commercial in late Feb, 2012 for 99.99 dollars with shipping charge.

Meanwhile, it is likely that Apple or Jobs' family might oppose the idea of using Jobs' likeness, as they did in 2010 when a company called MIC Gadget attempted to sell Jobs’ action figures on eBay.

The genius died in on Oct 5, 2011 at the age of 56 following a long battle with Pancreatic cancer.
