Detailed Steve Jobs Figurine
Seen at Mic Gadget, this Steve Jobs figurine gets down to the detail and delivers an exceptionally well made sculpture of the famous Apple leader. It shows Steve in his old fashioned Jeans and Black Turtleneck, and he is even the midst of a MacWorld iPhone presentation.
The Jeans and Turtleneck look almost real with the color a tad faded. you can even see the wrinkles on Steve’s head. Good old Steve’s beard looks just as the real thing too.
Holding the iPhone in hand, standing on the Apple logo as platform and arriving with some great word baloons makes this Steve Jobs sculpture practically complete.
Each figure is handmade.

In defense of being over-critical...
I just bumped into this article written by John Siracusa, entitled "Hypercritical". He mainly talks about the over-critical mind and Steve Jobs' amazing use of it. So in defense of over-criticism, here's the articles conclusion:
"The point is, ladies and gentleman, that criticism, for lack of a better word, is good. Criticism is right. Criticism works. Criticism clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit…
Okay, let me try that again. Actually, I'm on the same page as Gordon Gekko in one important respect. Like greed, criticism gets a bad rap, especially when it's presented in large doses. It's impolite. It's unnecessarily obsessive. It's just a bummer. But the truth is, precious little in life gets fixed in the absence of a good understanding of what's wrong with it to begin with.
This character flaw, this curse, this seemingly most useless of skills is actually the yin to the more widely recognized yang of creative talent. Is a preternatural ability to find fault enough on its own to make something great? Probably not, but it can help amplify mundane competencies and produce results well beyond what you could have achieved with your creative skills alone."
