Steve Jobs is a sought-after item after his death. Prohis books, covers are given iPhone with his likeness, photographs, magazines in which he appears and also figures. So far, a pair of figures have been sold. The first one from Micgadgets.com was from the sale downloaded just a few days after the launch due to the pedestal, which was in the shape of the company's logo Apple. The latter is currently sold on the dealextreme.com portal and we have brought more information about it here.
Now, the most perfect likeness of Steve Jobs will probably be released on the market in the form of a 30-centimeter-high figure priced at 2000 CZK. The toy store Dragon in Dream intends to launch the figure at the end of February. However, it should be noted, especially for those who, like us, were surprised by the high price, that DID Corporation produces truly faithful copies of real figures that completely correspond to reality and their quality reaches the level of meticulous models, not ordinary toys. The figure ponewith the name iCEO mini and will be dressed in Jobs' typical attire, i.e. blue jeans, sneakers and a black turtleneck.
Steve Jobs' family and company will probably try to prevent the release of the figures Apple Inc.ancHowever, they are not too big considering that it is only a portrait of "some man", as it is well known that several people in the world and even in our country resemble Steve Jobs. FacebookPhotos from Prague and Brno have already been posted, which depict a man very similar to Steve Jobs. The company Apple not even the Jobs family can possibly lay claim to the likeness of the man and his clothes. In addition, DID Corporation already released a figure of the US president several years ago, for which it also did not have permission and was not withdrawn from sale.
So when it's on sale, let me know ;) clear buy...
... and everyone who buys the figure has actually misunderstood one of S. Jobs's philosophies.
Igino : yes and no ..., if the ordinary user of apple products still has no idea about the existence of the world of "action figures", then it will probably remain untouched and the figure will again be bought mainly by collectors. Of course, even thanks to an article like this, a few worshipers will catch on, and then one of the proclaimed principles of the poor SJ will get fucked. But we're talking about iSheep that simply consume...
By the way, if you /the author of the article/ think the figure is expensive, then take a look at the little things from the recognized king of action figures - the company Hot Toys... There are real and also licensed gems, especially from the world of film.
I don't know how exactly Mr. Achjo meant it, but I will definitely buy the figure, I will buy it because SJ was, is and will be a role model for me, even though I never met him in person, I think I learned a lot from him... And feel free to tell me everyone iOvce:-D but their products just suit me and you can say what you want ;-) and come and fight, gentlemen haters:-)
Mr. Achjo meant it in a completely friendly spirit, don't worry ;)
I myself collect figures of movie heroes and often also with the faces of real people/actors, but putting them next to them on a desk in the study or in a display case of SJ himself would seem a little out of place... After all, Action Figures are more of a collecting exaggeration for me, a real person then, in my opinion, seems more like that, well, strangely...
But of course I won't excuse anyone from buying or wanting such things.
Peace
