Actually, originall the figure was presented "not for commercial use"

The product(s) in question are new textures for the figure. Technically, they do not use the figure at all, and are not infringing on any rights.

Granted, now the creator does not want any commercial products to be released FOR the figure, but I don't see how that would be reinforcable at all.

It would be like microsoft trying to block a program for windows.

"not for commercial use" typically means that the none of the content can be used in a commercial endeavor.. a film, still pics, ect, however the texture sets do not include ANY of the original content at all, so that becomes hard to enforce.

Add in the creator is based in Japan, where content rights different from US content rights, I think they only thing that could be done is the commercial products be removed from the marketplace by their own creator, as a consideration to the original figure creator. removing the figure's availability cuts down the market for it anyway, however I do feel bad for the texture creator as well.

I can se eboth sides of the coin, and technically both are in their own rights.

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
