# Plush Tribute Toys The iCEO Steve Jobs Doll is Charitable By Sarah Moore | Published 2012-03-16 | Social Good Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iceo-steve-jobs-doll References: [news.cnet](http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-57397313-1/iceo-cuddle-with-a-steve-jobs-plush/) & [news.cnet](http://news.cnet.com/) The iCEO Steve Jobs Doll is not an official [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caviar-barbiecore-collection) product, nor does the late technology tycoon's name appear anywhere on the manufacture's page. However, the resemblance to Jobs is uncanny -- and undoubtedly, intentional. The pillow-soft doll was created by [Throwboy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-macintosh). The company is known for its other technology-themed cushions that reference social media and shorthand texting lingo. The gray-haired doll stands a little over a foot-tall, and sports Jobs' signature ensemble of a black turtleneck, blue jeans and running shoes. The iCEO Steve Jobs Doll will be produced in a small quantity of 1,200 with 10% of the proceeds from each doll going to support the [American Cancer Society](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-by-american-girl). The doll is set to ship out this August, unless Apple launches a lawsuit to halt the tribute doll from being delivered. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 29% | Activity: 31% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Social Good](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialgood) > [Charity](https://www.trendhunter.com/charity) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Plush Tribute Toys:** Opportunity to create custom plush toys that pay homage to iconic figures and support charitable causes. - **Social Media-themed Cushions:** Creating soft cushions that reflect popular social media platforms and internet lingo. - **Technology-themed Pillows:** Designing pillows inspired by technology icons and gadgets. ### Where This Applies - **Toy Manufacturing:** Incorporating the trend of creating tribute dolls and plush toys into the toy manufacturing industry. - **Charitable Organizations:** Partnering with companies to create products that donate a portion of the proceeds to charitable causes. - **Home Decor:** Introducing technology-themed cushions and pillows as unique and trendy home decor items. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Nostalgic Tech-Themed Blankets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-macintosh.md) - [Real Hair-Packed Voodoo Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steveo.md) - [Streetwear-Informed Collectible Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/momoko-doll.md) - [Plush Toy Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urupochachan.md) - [Glamorous Rockstar-Inspired Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/david-bowie-doll.md) - [Collectable Sculptural Doll Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inedible-doll.md) - [Pinkish Toy-Inspired Tech Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caviar-barbiecore-collection.md) - [Family-Friendly Tech Accessory Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casetify-x-toy-story.md) - [Show-Inspired Collectible Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/squid-game-collectibles.md)
