I can see in that case where the company was making a profit from what Lucas has created and "making misleading claims about the authenticity and origins of these items" is lawfully wrong.

So say Larry builds custom replicas of Muppets. He builds them for himself. He's not breaking the law. Larry builds one for me and only charges me enough to make no profit from it. He's breaking the law. ^Thants not sinking into my brain as to how that's illegal^ No need to explain...

Some people like name-brand merchandise and some don't. Sorry...that's supposed to be a joke to lighten the mood. :p This brings something else to my mind.... How can eBay be legal AT ALL? What I'm getting from this conversation is that these people are breaking the law by making a profit...

That was always my favorite part of getting new figures from the Palisades line. I loved when people would post pictures of their collection. I love when people post pictures of their Kermit photo prop replica. This will be MORE exciting as new Muppets come!

I can see how selling the replica would be illegal if the seller is making a profit. But if they don't make any profit off it, I don't see why they can't sell one. To me, it's no different than buying a cd, ripping it onto your computer, and then burning a copy to keep and listen to in your...

I saw Hot Rod on Sunday. I was kinda nervous cuz I wasn't in the mood for a comedy. A group of my friends and I go to a movie ever Sunday. Majority rules no matter what. Majority of my friends are heterosexual (no offense) guys in their early 20s so that movie won. I thought it'd be kinda like...

HOLY CRAP! Fozzie's WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY cheaper than I was thinking. With Fozzie being SO cheap...I might just be getting Animal after all!

I still don't get why you don't crack down on the people on this board who make replicas for themselves. Shouldn't you be telling this stuff to them as well? From what you're telling me, it's my understanding that they're not following the law by making them for their own personal enjoyment.

I guess I don't see how one's able to build something for their own personal pleasure, but can't build one for somebody else if that person buys the materials.

Rich Little's impressions of the Muppets....not so good. :sleep: :boo:

So then the people on these boards shouldn't be making the replicas they're making then? I've seen some beautiful pieces on here. It'd be a shame to have to see them destroyed. Is that what you're telling me? People shouldn't be building the replicas AT ALL...even if it is for themselves? Yet...

I'm sorry Barry Lee. :boo:@them

Thanks again! I got one of my girl friends into Harley Quinn. I think her and her boyfriend are going to dress up like Joker and Harley for Halloween!

That sounds cool KermieBaby! I'd like to see it! Anyone know where I can get some more mini-frames like that?

i think Pepe would be a big seller. My friends who aren't really into the Muppets find Pepe HILARIOUS so i think he'd sell pretty well. If he's $200 - $300 I don't think that's too high of a price. That's just me thought! :crazy:

Also...never stick a wooden nickel in your mouth unless you know where it's been!

Heck! You probably even saw it on the same channel! KMSP...I think it's called like MYsomethingorother?

Gonzo14....were you watching South Park tonight? That was the episode I happen to catch tonight! The one where Butters' dad goes to the gay bathhouse!

That's awesome! I bet it feels great to build something from your imagination and see the finished product! Awesome work!

Got my copy! Had to ask the guy putting out the DVDs for it. He's like, "Yeah! I just saw it!" He grabbed a copy and gave it to me. I looked down and realized it was the felt cover. I would've been fine with the standard one, but this is cool! YAY! It's time to get things started!
