I would also be curious if the creator of the model gets any financial
kickback.  I know most of us here would love the recognition and pride of
getting a model reproduced by LD, but from a legal standpoint I wonder if
any offer of money was made, or if a clause of what is submitted becomes
property of LD/TLC.

(If a paint company reproduces an artists painting, the copyright usually
remains the property of the artist... And in this case LEGO is just the
medium as would be the paint.)
