Hello Mark,
We only found out about this foolishness 30 minutes ago. I have spoken the distributor and they are working with Art Figure to find a solution. We will be sending out an email shortly explaining what we know at this point. We've suspended any new preorders. We will retain the orders we've taken until we learn whether or not we will be able to acquire this item.
The message below is all we know at the moment:
Dear Value Customer:
We received an email from UK regarding the new “ArtFigure Heavy Armored Special Cop” may violating Novel Judge Dredd copyright and registered-trademark. We suggest our retailers taken down the figure from your website until further notice. We are working with ArtFigure to resolve the issue.
If you have other inquiry/concern, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are looking forward to hear from you soon.
