Haha "Kamen Gayrider", I see what you did there. That's very clever. How long did that take you to come up with? Such a complex of an insult like that must have taken years of thinking. OMG! The complexity it just blew my mind to another dimension! It's unbelievable!! That has to be the funniest insult I have ever read. You gotta teach me the ways of how to make really funny insults like that. It's mind boggling how someone can think of such a good insult. -end sarcasm here-

@PinoyCannibal - This comment has no use to the discussion and your pejorative use of "gay" is both unimaginative and unwelcome. Blocked.

@PinoyCannibal I blocked you from my channel on account of the senselessly spiteful and moronically voiced abuse-messages you sent me; seems you haven't changed much for the better. I'm also glad to hear that other 'decent' youtubers have as little time for your nonsense as I do....this is the third toy/model channel I know of that has blocked you for similar reasons. WELL DONE.

Well, the S.I.C. Utopia Dopant is handmade but copyright infringement still wins.

I find that if you have customized any part of it ( taken off, added, painted) that the figure isn't what the company orginally put out. Which means at least in my head that it is now your own figure. I havent't seen one kid at my school because he drew a Pokemon or a sport logo. IMO as long as the figure has been changed then the manufacturer should not be able to arrest you.

P.S. The custom Kamen rider is SOOOO Cool looking.... i would pick one up if not for that price :\

Over all this is intresting subject. Over all Bandai has took strict stance with this so it depends how company that made orginal product and holds lisence reacts to it. If they are against it then selling custome toys based on toy orginally made by them then of course its not allowed. How ever this brings problem that if some company dosen't take stance in matter then is it then legal to sell custome toy based on that company's product or not as they have not told they opinion on matter.
