If we want to be truly iconoclastic about this, consider the following, folks: Models of 57 Chevys sold by Dudley? Theft of trademark. Freestuff models of Harleys? Theft of trademark. Almost the entire Animotions website? Theft of trademark. Someone doing a morph of Spike or Buffy? Theft of trademark. Martian Manhunter's handle? Theft of trademark. Shall I continue? Troberg has stated over and over that it was a test drive, perfectly legal in Sweden, and that he plans on getting the proper licence. But you're running wild with the assumption that he's some kind of warez kitty who's ripping off the system. Well, start cleaning your own houses first, okay? Delete all those Wonder Woman textures and those "looks like Scully" morphs. Unless they were authorized by DC Comics or the X-Files production company, you're stealing, pure and simple. Doesn't feel quite so good when the shoe's on the wrong foot, huh...
