Angel Sanctuary dollfies?

[rose_of_pain]

WHAT?! O_o;

Angel Studio just released two dollfies modeled to look like Lucifer and Gabriel/Jibrielle from Angel Sanctuary. I kid you not, they even have the outfits!

http://www.angell-studio.com/shop/index.php?gOo=goods_details.dwt&goodsid=239&productname= - Lucifer - I don't really like his face mold though but oh the outfit. x_x;

And they're not available with the outfits right now but apparantly they will be. O_o Crazies. And they're only like $300 and full 60cm dolls. O_o

WHAT?! XP

Edit: And no, I have no intention of getting him. Just weirded out by it all. lol Though tempted to try to get the outfit if it ever becomes avialable. XPXP

Yeah, and I hate how everyone on DOA is like "well, they can't do anything about it because they didn't rip it off exactly, etc. etc." and I'm like "Nooo, they totally ripped it off exactly!" and at first thought the outfits were just for show but apparantly they are going to be selling them with the dolls later.

But maybe they actually did get permission? I'm hoping because I'd be really sad if they didn't.

i doubt a japanese manga artist would give permission to some random chinese doll factory. that and it's not just her permission, you'd have to get license through the magazine/book companies. they cost money

i dun think they did it. like that nana doll, i don't think they did that either =.=

That's...not cool.

I don't know much about how these things work in Japan but is there anything the manga/magazine company could do about this? 'Cause I really don't like the idea of them ripping off her characters.

it costs too much money to sue a company over seas. they don't always pursue sueing sadly.

futhermore, they're referring directly to other companies about their skin tones? this company, along with their cheap prices, just screams rip off. it seems chinese doll companies have little scruples when it comes to these things...

Which is unfortunante. I was looking at some of their outfits as they're pretty cool but now I'm completely turned off as I don't want to support a company that is just ripping off other people's ideas.
