Shawn gave an update yesterday showing an example of a delay (but not really stating what it was). It appears his story might be missing a slide or is out of order: http://instagram.com/p/CyfbUUouQHB

Does anyone know what the yellow Max Moon / Komit Kid is based on? I remember him only wearing 2 separate color gears. Blue and a Teal colored ring gear.
Did he wear the yellow one elsewhere or is just creative freedom from KWK?

This line is a joke, the guy is a scammer I had an interaction with him and he was a complete jerk to me. I wanted to buy an unreleased figure he had for sale and I felt the price wasn't worth it so I told him I would pass. He then goes to insinuate I'm too poor to afford it and insults me. Not the type of person I'm going to support. I will be shocked if he actually delivers on these.

At least not in any picture that I can find from the WWF.

He's a big CCP supporter, no surprise.

Did we see any pics of La Resistance? I can’t recall them being announced. LoL

Anyone know how he’s able to use the (presumably) trademarked names? Is it the same funny business he tried pulling with Kamala how he somehow purchased the ip in a different country?

I wouldn’t be surprised if they just let max moon trademark lapse
Im not sure of the full legality but what I believe is you can’t just trademark for the sake of trademarking, you have to shown intent or reason to have the trademark
E.g. the undertaker trademark for the purposes of wrestling / sports entertainment WWE will keep ontop of because of the figures, trading cards, merch etc avenues and revenue streams
Someone like say max moon. If they wanted to renew the trademark they’d have to be able to evidence why and I can’t remember any max moon merch in forever
Similarly Adam bomb, I believe they let that lapse and Bryan Clarke owns the trademark now? Could be wrong but for some reason I think that.

He's not using the same names. Comet Kid, or whatever he's called, is presumably his way around any trademarks. Same deal with using the real names of the talent as opposed to their WWF ring names.

I think a big part of it has to do with him being based in China/using their law system. When it comes to international copyright law or shipping these goods to other countries, I am mostly useless. That isn’t what I got my doctorate in so I cannot speak to it. That said, he appears to be using some of their WWF names (at least as of this time). Mantaur = Mike “Mantaur Halac Max Moon/Comet Kid/Komet Kid = Komet Kid For further educational purposes: As far as I know, all other names and looks are going to be the same as what they had in the WWF.

I purchased a test shot of the OWN Warrior from him (one of the four limited release Warriors). Cost a couple hundred and went fine. Then he wanted to do business on a granite warrior but he wanted $1200 for it. Which I said was too much for a figure and he indicated I was too cheap/poor to afford it and called me a dick for wasting his time.

If you want to play with the big boys better be prepared. One kidney is totally enough.
