OK people - I'm all wound up from the recent Content Paradise split from RuntimeDNA, on top of the Renderosity one.  So let's all pay attention to an issue regarding the freebie called Wapico's PU Doll for Poser.  Some of you have it.

See this :

Meanwhile, Wapico has removed the free item from her / his website.

Upshot is:
Creator makes fan art 3D version of real doll product of a real company.  Makes it free under terms that it and all related items created for it must be free. 

Someone comes along and makes commercial products for the free fan item.  Sells them at a brokerage.

Fearing being sued by commercial company of real product, creator pulls the item.  Meanwhile, commercial product still remains for sale.
