The camo pattern won't be the same, the colors or how the figure attaches to the glider. The photo I used was for size comparason.

I just want to see if I can make a small NON-flying glider to display some of my figures on. The pic I had was for size comparison only, I had no intention of creating the exact same thing pictured. It's just gonna be a blue and black wing. I'm not even sure if I can recreate the cobra logo easily enough to even put on it. But yeah... I can understand your concerns.

If you use a joe item you must change it by 33% and then it no longer is a hasbro item, it is now your own. If you do not change any thing at all, then you are in copy right infringement, then can and will cause trouble.

Like Olocen stated. To truly not be infringement the item has to be changed. The big boys have people that are on the look out for such items. I know that recently (within the last year) Hasbro released guidelines for what they do not pursue when it come to infringement prosecution or CNDs (Cease & Decist Letters). From what I remember 1 of a Kind customs that are not easily mistaken for a Hasbro production figure is able to be sold (the same for small run custom parts). But to be safe, make items that are not straight remakes and your safe.
