actually, you could sell the repainted G.I. Joe. People sell collectible Barbie dolls that aren't officially liscensed by mattel. But a Poser figure is more like a five dollar bill. You can own it, trade it, cut it up into tiny pieces, if you like(not quite sure if that's legal...) You can scan it into your computer, cut out Abe Lincoln's face and stick it on a billboard. But if you photocopy it and pass it off as real, you're in trouble.
