Apple has threatened to sue In Icons, the manufacturer of the 12-inch-tall

freaky!/awesome!/freaky!/awesome! Steve Jobs action figure. At least that's what the Daily Telegraph is saying, specifying no sources whatsoever.


No other details are given, just a vague "their efforts have reportedly met a legal challenge [from Apple]." In Icons site is still operative and sluggish as ever.


If you are a fanboy, you can still get this action figure for $100. It is supposed to start shipping in February. The price is going to go crazy if they start selling them and then ban them, that's for sure. [Daily Telegraph via Mashable]
