WWII Bomber: "Trademark Infringement"

This is an ongoing thing with military models.


Take a look around and try to find a plastic model kit for a B-24.

They haven't existed since the 80's.


I think what it comes down to is that these companies own a shape, in particular the Davis wing. What you're duplicating is a proprietary wing design, fuselage shape, all that.

One has to differentiate a 3D replica from a 2D rendering. A drawing or photo is just that, but a 3D model is a scale reproduction.

This seems -- aside from scale and complexity -- to be along the same lines as making an exact copy of a Coca-Cola bottle, Zippo lighter, or Chevy Malibu.
