Well...Disney can persecute out the ass here,
especially on E-bay since it's in the USA. And
since Disney has reps set all over the
world...They can police all over the world, no
matter what language barrier.
They created something. They have the ABSOLUTE
RIGHT to do WHAT EVER they want with it. Even if
it means telling everyone who wants to try to
copy them they'll get sued...etc. That is THEIR
RIGHT.
Anime is made in Japan. Now, you don't see those
companies set up all over the world like
Disney...So they CAN NOT police like Disney.
All it takes is someone with contacts to raise a
stink in the anime industry, and set out to take
everyone down...Just like Disney is doing...And
not only Disney...
This happens a lot in the art industry,,,Wether
you be a painter, novelist, or musician. It
happens in all the fields.
If someone can't afford that $1500 Belldandy
cel...You know what? If they want it bad
enough...They'll SAVE for it.
Lots of people are like..."I want it now...I'm so
used to things getting handed to me...I want
it...I don't want to have to be patient and work
for it..."
And if they want a fancel...You and the fan cel
artist run the risk of having the industry and
the cel community at large trampling on your toes
if you overstep the inlaid bounds. The main
one...Not askig permission to use someone's cel
in their gallery to be painted as a fan cel.
Learn the rules. Play by the rules. And one
day...heh...You may be the one making the rules. |
