Apple fans still mourning the loss of the Steve Jobs can now dull the pain a little with their very own action figure of the company's iconic former leader.

Toy companies in icons and Dragon in Dream have teamed up to create the doll, which includes the trademark black turtleneck sweater and blue jeans, but sadly no miniature iPad, iPhone or Mac.

Each costs a hefty US$99.99, which might not be an impediment to Apple fans used to paying a bit more for their gear.

It's scheduled to go on shelves in late February, but there's a good chance Jobs' family or Apple might try to block its release, as it's not authorised by either.

Dragon in Dream once released an unauthorised Barack Obama figurine.

@mike, I'm sure the possessively jealous lord won't mind anyone having a Steve Jobs action figure after all, Steve Jobs is an icon and a lord for many people. and. Steve Jobs was real. not just some bronze age myth.
