(Newser) – Sadly, this did not make it out in time for Christmas, but you can still buy your tech-loving boyfriend one for Valentine's Day: A 12-inch Steve Jobs action figure goes on sale in February … but you'll have to shell out $100 for it. The figurine comes with glasses and two apples (one with a bite in it), but other accessories—like mini versions of the iPad and first Mac computer—will cost you extra. Jobs is, of course, wearing his signature black turtleneck and jeans. The Telegraph notes that another Jobs action figure was briefly offered for $89 last year, but Apple blocked it since Jobs had not given his consent. It remains to be seen whether the same fate awaits this figure, made by InIcon. Click to see the 'eerily realistic' figure.

How can it be an action figure when all it does is sit in front of a computer all day?

"Yours for $100: Steve Jobs Action Figure" But it won't work with other "Action Figures".....right?

So is this sickly cancer-patient Steve, or edgy, 1990's zen-buddhist Steve...with no shoes?
