That's a fair question and has been asked by others elsewhere. Basically, it's hard to get meetings with big companies. I'm just the little guy. But effectively, we're not mass-producing these and they are made for collectors like you. We may be using the likenesses of characters, but that makes us no different from a fan artist at a convention. That being said I will be meeting with an IP lawyer. But this is the main reason for not allowing people to buy 50 of them to sell at their store. That's not what we're about. This is an expensive project, and we're doing it for the fun of it.
