Smitty.81

@sci-fitsunami MOUT isn't the power house that Barbie and Hot Wheels are. Also Hot Wheels are much cheaper to produce and one car and cost more than a single Origins figure.

@samuel and all that should be a matter of public record.

@he-dad I'm not 100% sure, but using it has some strange stipulations. There was a company that had film right to the Fantastic Four, and made a movie with no plan to release it just to keep the right...

@he-dad oh it does say figures, my bad. That doesn't change the fact that Mattel owns they toy and character rights. I'm pretty sure DreamWorks has animation and distribution rights. But they have to ...

@andy_wan_kenobi you remember correctly. Also Smith is probably only privy info about cartoon right and not toy rights.

@he-dad there's two animated She-Ra cartoons. This could be a case where dreamworks had the rights to make shiver cartoons, but whatever production companies smith was working with did not have those ...

@admin I think in this case it's a matter of what would be easier for Mattel to design and manufacture.

@admin I wonder if her mask come off or just moves up and down?

@banthafett super helpful reply. I don't know everything but I did take some business classes when I was thinking about opening my own toy shop, and this was covered. Pluse I did some reading of my ow...

@he-dad just having Adora in her Filmation, appearance would require a DreamWorks or whoever owns the rights to that character trademark be present. When you use the likeness of something, you're supp...

@he-dad if that statement were accurate, there would be a dreamworks, copyright notification on the packaging.

@admin oh look Filmation Adora and no other company's copyright other than Mattel.

What do you think made him so angry?

I'm still disappointed that CC Faker is just angry face He-Man

@durendal that's so sad.

@chrisa love it, I may use them.

@durendal no it's more fun.

@durendal you can always give them new names.

@brasco they are both "end of the year" figures the store may have ordered more than they do throughout the year trying to prep for the holidays.

@brasco what do you mean by "dogs" because I wouldn't call CC Evil-Lyn or ToG April dogs.

@kraken but He-Man sold out quick.

@kraken I can't. Turtles of Grayskull is doing very well and people seem excited about the upcoming Thundercats crossover. Rules of the Sun was met with a mixed reaction but that's over. The Stranger ...

@kraken no, because mattel fears that some fans will just drop off once the vintage figures are finished. They want to give us a vintage figure every once in a while, and in between those give us othe...
