So why is it not named after Mark Zuckerburg? NYT reports that they had created the Apple CEO Steve Jobs doll earlier and had to withdraw because of legal issues -“Unauthorized use of a person’s name and/or likeness constitutes a violation of California Civil Code Section 3344, which prohibits the use of any person’s name, photograph or likeness in a product without that person’s prior consent…”

You  can buy Mark Zuckerburg doll at MIC store for $69.90. The limit is one per customer. Do you like it.

Update: Soon enough Facebook served legal notices and the figurine was withdrawn.
