(gmane made me break up the link)
Basically a UK's branch of Wal Mart has a product that looks pretty much like Tux.

Chuckle.. the left hand one does indeed look a little tuxlike but more worrying is the unfortunate placing of the stick which means it looks like its taking a crap.
The other one indeed also looks like the crystal tux
Tux however isn't just a Linux penguin. If you read the blurb Larry said "Permission to use and/or modify this image is granted provided you acknowledge me [email protected] and The GIMP if someone asks. "
So he's sort of CC-BY, only he's older ;)
He's been legitimately used in all sorts of things including an ice rink advert!

Well, people who use it on shirts, I understand they can read ;) Ice lollies designers - I don't know any of this sort, so I can't say... Oh well they probably use some sorts of computers too ;)

Well this more-Tux-like is more like a parody but that may be down to production process too.
If I wasn't thinking this image is a little bit offensive, it would be a nice logo for a pun...
