Dear LEGO,
While out shopping for some new LEGO Collectible pens, I came across these:
This surprised me because on the hang card of the Belville pen P2171 shown below
produced by the same company (Stylus) it states, “...the knob configuration (and
the minfigure) are trademarks of the LEGO Group.” I’ve looked carefully at
these pens and I can tell you all the beads as well as the pen parts themselves
are identical in design. Any AFOL would recognize one of the bead shapes as
taken from a minifig head.
These items are also identical in design (although now they seem to be more
cheaply made) to the parts from the old collectible pens produced by the CDM
Company for TLG.
Have you sold your designs to the Stylus Company or allowed them to be used on
Disney brand items? If so, I am disappointed. Part of the fun of collecting
these pens was that they were exclusively LEGO pens. If not, maybe you should
check into this to see if they haven’t stolen your design.
Best regards,
Maggie Cambron
