    Strictly speaking, unthinking fans got money involved, but it's functionally equivalent. Direct revenue for someone was tied to their IP, and they weren't in control of it.

    Ok, yeah, but then what about art? People make money off of commissions, and booths at conventions.

    High-profile vs. low-profile, and potential. Game tourneys draw pretty big numbers, individual commissions for art or plushies rarely draw massive revenue streams.

    They could have told EVO they wanted nothing to do with their contest at all and demand they remove them. They did not.

    Not considered practical to go after commissioners and on top of that, it's a much more murky realm of litigation. I imagine they'd have something to say if someone say, tried to commission a comic and then tried to sell it.

    You mean like the official MLP comic? Or was that Hasbro-approved (like Double Rainboom)?

    Pretty sure the IDW comic is approved by Hasbro. They are a legit publisher and one of the bigger ones.
