Quote - Bought the "Red" character for M4 awhile back. Got an email recently that said the product had been pulled and that the character could no longer be used commercially, but was still ok for non commercial renders, and you could get a refund if you wanted but would have to remove the character from your hard drive.
Not too sure about the legality of changing a licensing agreement after you've purchased a product...
And there you have it. Interestingly, a number of the other celebrity look alikes at the vendors store have been modified to not look so much like the original model. I'm assuming they are just morphs of the original. They look like charicatures now which is almost better.
I guess you could go after the vendor for changing the terms but even if you won you'd have to contend with ReD's lawyers if you tried to use it commercially.
