In Icons had scheduled a February release for their extremely well crafted Steve Jobs figurine. Apple’s lawyers, however, thwarted their plans stipulating in a letter to the manufacturer that rolling out any product that resembles “the company's logo, person's name, appearance or likeness of its products” will be deemed a criminal offense,
