I hear ya! Everyone knows Tigger is tons cooler than Eeyore.

 

Ya' but she's a HOT toon.

 

True.

 

That would look nice on a pink Ridley.

 

Damn good paint job on a tank...not my style, but if It was, I would like it!

 

>As long as there is no attempt to earn money from the use of trademark or copyright material.

Absolutely untrue. If the attorneys at Disney were concerned about this kind of use, they would try to make a case that this use of the work violates Fair Use doctrine. The burden of proof is on the Disney in this situation because it is a non-commercial use (until you go to sell the bike), but your bank account will be up against Disney's bank account. I think Disney could easily show that the widespread use of this work (especially in this fashion) would hurt the potential market of the original, therefore violating fair use.

Trademark law has nothing to do with it; this is not Disney's trademark. In the case of coca-cola, there is absolutely trademark infringement there; but having coca-cola's trademark appear on someone's bike is not a problem for them.

In any event, I wouldn't lose sleep over it; I just thought it was ironic.

 

Thanks. This guy is very good, IMO. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for most times.

 

Sadly, Ridley appears to be finished for once and all. They filed for bankruptcy protection and their primary lender filed to seize all collateral to satisfy a portion of the debt.

In the current economic climate and bike market I don't think it's likely they'll return.

 

Whoever painted it did a nice job....

 

I'D say that's GOOFY but i don't see him LOL just kidden looks great just make sure it goes on your ol lady's bike ..
