Copies of your fursuits made in China..
10 years ago
prplhaze sent me a link of a company in China who is re-selling fursuit characters and mascots among other characters on their site.So far I have found suits made by fursuiting.com and Clockworkcreature.com
Companies who do this rally tick me off as we take time to create, build and bring characters to life with the help of amazing suit builders and some knock off company decides to undercut and re-sell the concepts as their own.
Sadly unsure what those affected can do as China's copyright laws are non existent.

That is the link if it works.

It would be a lot of work to remake a particular suit instead of something else that's similar... so the pictures wouldn't match the final pieces anyway... or something...
And its not as profitable as copying old, popular art 1:1
I mean fursuits would have to be priced 10 or 100 times more before we start seeing real copies of them on chinese streets.
Okay, enough joking around... It really sucks, but they've been doing this
for many MANY years... And if they can do it to Disney and Warner Bros.
and get away with it, who the heck do we (non-licensed, non-corporate)
little guys think we are and how do we think we're going to stop China?
I hate to be a downer, but when Disney and WB can't do anything about
all this copy write infringement, I don't think we stand a chance :(
People will do anything for money...
