They must surely be deliberately be courting legal action as some sort of publicity stunt?

According to them they have used original artwork. Their rational for that is, a graphic artist has drawn it from scratch (somehow the fact he was 60 yrs of age was also relevant).<br /><br />They are adamant that it is an evil robot and dont think they have breached any copyright law.<br /><br />I told them that as a Whovian artist I was disappointed. That it really didn't help those of us who are trying to do things the right way when a large body/corporation do something like this.<br /><br />The copyright around the Dalek is very complex and their "Evil Robot" is most certainly a breach.<br /><br />:pannabelgrahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16222209712927212158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20322865.post-50928823769640894022012-03-14T10:29:44.657+13:002012-03-14T10:29:44.657+13:00I had wondered about these posters.

Recently asked Powershop if I could purchase a Dalek poster but they said<br />they don't sell their marketing material.<br /><br />Maybe I'm wrong...but with no little BBC symbol on the pic, makes it look like a steal.Annabel Grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11642974131193972609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20322865.post-40977185767477994132012-01-23T20:46:37.943+13:002012-01-23T20:46:37.943+13:00Highly reminiscent of the Macintosh Daleks. ~Marti...Highly reminiscent of the Macintosh Daleks. ~MartinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
