We received another infringement warning from GW. This time on Xenos Hunters stuff. Mainly pads, some backpacks, and shields, both physical and digital. This was expected, and we will not challenge. Products in the store will be disabled in a day or two. Pick them up if you need them. We have added an automatic 50% promo for everything that will be removed.

I roughly understand the borders for the infringement, and perhaps I can continue to work, avoiding new ones.

I hate this kind of attacks on things that are not only not a copy, but a creative enough to not even be called a derivative. I hope it is mostly related to the insignia and the like, and you can keep them coming :)

Tiny Legend

Thx! Yes, most likely they were attracted by the "I" insignia, I shouldn’t have keep it. Gonna try to update the affected items as soon as possible.

Tiny Legend

Thank you. Of course they have rights to some stuff. But it would be better if they made miniatures that hobbyists asked for. Most customers will prefer a branded factory product to a handicraft one.

Do they have it trademarked? If not, there isn't anything they can do if someone puts the letter I on something.

Oh crap. Maybe I should've downloaded those files. I thought "Oh, I collect ww2 guys and already have a book on space warriors, I dont need xeno hunters" talk about massive mistake.

I have no idea where to check for british trademarks list, but I would assume that they have might have trademarked it.

Are these items that Patreons should have gotten under the membership or was this always just in the store?

Ritchie Bearfield

Just searched through my old emails. The files are also attached to the Patreon Update emails. Just for anyone else searching for unloaded files.

Please keep them up thru tomorrow if you can! I’m on a flight over the Atlantic rn and can’t get to my PC until tomorrow 😮‍💨 Also, so freaking sad to see you go through this — you’re one of my fav sculptors and I actually got best in faction for Deathwatch using some of your bits! Went 3-0 day 1 and 5-1 overall, 56th outta 1100 haha. What’s crazy at LVO is the judges don’t even care about 3rd party bits. I have an email from the head judge stating so. It’s just GW worried you’re stealing their thunder. I’m going to go for best in faction for the coming year for deathwatch and would proudly rock all of your xenos bits! I’m really hoping I can download them all in time before you have to take them down! 🫶🏼🤞🏼

Tiny Legend

Man, I wish I could hold these longer, but I really don't even know what I'm risking. We do not have the resources to litigate with GW. We cant predict what and when they can do. I understand that it was too fast and sudden, but for us too. We will have to remove these items until we can figure out how to safely change them in a way that suits you and does not pose a threat to us. Thanks for your support. I hope we can continue to provide some joy in the future.

Cal Quinn

Can I buy them now and download them tomorrow? And I totally understand on the rest of

Tiny Legend

Yep. You will get the link and be able download it later. I will close the sale within an hour.
