(...) Chris, keep the fire suit on, then do a search on "Bram Lambrecht" where someone copied one of his car designs...then tried to profit on it... Likewise, If you're selling your Lego collection, makes me wonder how die-hard a Lego fan you are... (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars)

(...) I appreciate the good things you've said. I also appreciate that you've come in here to try and work this out. This thread got pretty silly real quick.

I agree Bram, I made that point in my post, I can completely understand why Mark feels cheated. my point isn't where the inspiration of where Ryan's MOC came from, but it's just that when I first read Mark's post it felt to me as if it was a (...)

(...) The point is *not* whether Mark owns the design or not. The point is that Mark will feel cheated. If I were in Mark's shoes (hey, wait, I have been in the same situation...like 3 times), I'd feel the same way. By selling his Gunstar, Ryan (...)

(...) Well, I'm not really all that upset about it. I just stated my opinion on the matter. I don't hate you or anything. I don't really think my original post was "nasty" unless you're really thin skinned, which you don't seem to be. Anyway, it's (...) (21 years ago, 13-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars, FTX)

(...) I'll concede that the Grand Admiral has some intellectual property rights here that are being ignored by Ryan's attempt to sell a model adapted from Mark's design. And for the record, I think it would be bad form for Ryan to sell this model (...) (21 years ago, 13-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.market.theory)
