This item's not new, but I just noticed this:
Gaia Marketplace: Item Detail for Shadowlegend 2nd Gen.
Paul Phoenix from Tekken.
They got everything from his hair to his gi, and even his beard.
Pretty blatant.

Why am I not surprised?
It sucks how they don't get copyrighted,
fffff---
They expect people to buy like 10 of them, to look like him, and then join the avi arena...
Waste of So much!
I don't think they would do it for the Arenas..
I do think they try getting more users to buy these things for cosplays possibly tho.
"Whatever keeps my wallet fat."
No surprise.
All for the money.
Atleast they made it look decent.
Funny thing is, Gaya is doing the same thing spoof movies do, they take something and make it almost exactly the same, but change the name of it, and its not illegal, because you can't copywrite a likeness, there is nothing any one can do about it.
you know theres also valdo that thay riped off in the same item
Oh yeah, Voldo from Soulcalibur too..Quote:

They think it's still funny and cool.
Don't they mostly do this kinda stuff to attract more people to join?
For example, a hardcore Teken fan?
My belief is that Gaia is losing lots of members.There like groveling right now begging anyone to join so they make tons of gay ass cosplay things and expect people to buy this crap from the cash shops.there nothing but losers and the items just keep getting lamer and lamer.....and lamer and lamer....lamer.Trust me i give gaia like 3-4 more years before there completely over they have to pull something magical out there ass to save themselves but purely my opinion,
that one i will say it so fucking trueQuote:

Seriously, it's annoying how Gaia can get away with this stuff.
Gaia is losing there cool points because they cant even make items for themselfs anymore.everything gaia is doing is user created or from some Wack ass Manga/anime/cartoon i hate the fact that believe there going to last long on this streak to loserdum.
Honestly I think Gaia is becoming one of those "BIGGER" corporations.
All of these rip-offs and sponsors are just ways for them to make money.
And ways to give us "free"(shitty) items.
Down with the Robber Barons! <--U.S. History reference ._.
It's Mai Shiranui from KoFQuote:

Not really much of ripping off of Tekken when Tekken sponsors some of the things around Gaia. And its not really suprising, I actually like this item. It looks very nice, and fits well with my interests.
Gaya died a long time ago my friend; end of 06 was when it irrevocably perished. Now, all they care about is money.Quote:

Wow gaia seriously needs to think of their own items. One day they are gonna get sued

On top of that consider this, every time gaia makes something like that and the game or movie is mentioned that game or movie has just been advertised. All publicity is good publicity with the right spin.
this is the fact of it all. parody = legal knockoff. all they have to say is name it something else, and they will get away with it all. EXM= Scary Movie.Quote:

sucks dude, then again gaia has been doing this for a while now anyway so is it really THAT suprising???
No it's not, and it's not that bad of an idea. To me it's a ploy to keep old members who like games, anime, etc and a hopeful draw to new members. I kind of the doubt that the latter is working, but hey that doesn't mean it's a horrible thing to do.
The Ninja Band was like the first ripoff.
But I don't think that the Naruto series was fully licensed then.
Kinda curious as to what game Shadowlegend will "borrow" from next. It's been fighting games from the beginning... maybe Mortal Kombat will be borroed from next?
Who really gives a shit?
^ Apparently as few people in this thread give a shit.... I give a shit too... oh wait that didn't sound right... : /
Yep, I noticed that.. I just put up with it and stop whining over LG how Gaya steals others ideas and covers the name up.. And this is why I don't use Gaya anymore, because they have basically given up on ideas and completely fucked up on the MC's, etc.
