Jobs and Woz together again--in Lego form at least
Miss out on that Lego minifigure of Steve Wozniak that came out a couple of years ago? No worries. Now you can buy a Lego-ized Woz and gets Steve Jobs for free.

The Young Woz and Jobs Playset, the latest limited-edition custom minifig product from Rockville, Md.-based PodBrix, goes on sale Wednesday at 9 p.m. EDT. If you're into Apple-related Lego tzotchkes, you might want to act fast. Only 300 will be available.
Created by an artist named Tomi--also of 1984 Playset fame--each $40 set contains a young version of Jobs and a super-smiley Woz standing beside a custom-made computer and a circuit board-based project in progress. A mini thought bubble floating above Jobs' head attempts to answer the fateful question: what was Jobs thinking about back in 1972?
Note to shopping self: PodBrix, which makes a point of saying that it's not affiliated with Apple or Lego in any way, ships internationally.
