Well, thanks for the legal advice.
I'll just let the mods determine when I've crossed the line for inappropriate speech on the Tank. I have NOT said that the Fan-Made complete custom figure kits are "unOfficially endorsed" by Hasbro. I asked if Hasbro's allowance of them could be understood that way. |

Thanks for stopping by, buddy. I'm sure we're all better off for it... wow. We had no profanity or reference to inappropriate activities until you showed up to tell us that my thread is stupid. Thanks.
Honestly, you work for/with SDS. Y'all are starting complete custom figure kits. What do you think about all this? The exclusives piss me off personally, the price point and the fact that some of the stuff they make I really want, and would love to get at retail, but that doesnt make them unofficial by any means. Take the new Zarranna for example? She might not have done well at retail but as an exclusive she is going to sell out, and most of us will never even see one. I would love to see Hasbro make some of these things online only exclusives, like Mattel does for He-man. Not the whole line, but do that instead of making fan favorites con exclusives, let everyone get a shot at one, with a limit of one per person. And limit con exclusives to cool repaints of available figures.

Does The Black Major have a website where his products can be ordered?

Those are POC figures. That line is still current. ROC is not, therefore the Elite Ice-Viper is in fact the only character that we do not have so far. For others, just yo avoid confusion, the Elite Ice-Viper is a different character than the Ice-Viper even though he is a repaint.

This^ Thread over. Production numbers have nothing to do with it, only licensing.

I'm not giving you legal advice, I'm saying that it's not a good idea to even bring the discussion of is it or isn't it unofficially endorsed to the table, cause if everyone jumped on board and said it is on a public forum instead of just thinking that way in their head, then you could possibly change Hasbro's way of looking at these customs in a negative way. I don't want these guys to stop creating cool customs and custom kits. There's no need to create headaches for them by getting the community to profess they feel these are unofficially endorsed cause Hasbro does nothing. (not that I'm saying you are trying to get the community to endorse it, but that this line of conversation has the potential of bringing that out)
OK, how's this to try and straighten this thread out towards the direction I intended it to take: Do we as a community of Joe Fans see the complete custom figure kits by guys like Aly, Ragingspoon, Slayer, etc. any differently than a "one-off" custom by an individual fan? Does the fact that Aly's figures, for example, are publically available to everyone, and we're all pretty much aware of them make them somehow more "grassroots official/acepted" than a single, privately made custom? In other words, does the fact that Hasbro/Collectors Club has NOT given us Muskrat make Aly's verison of Muskrat the Fan-Community accepted version?
