Telltale Games

Wow, does that mean that someone on these forums is doing this? Probably. Also, one of the items was listed as
"NEW HOT MONKEY ISLAND MOVIE BLACK T SHIRT TEES". They make Tales sound like some kind of porn film...

I am guessing they are lurking around here or maybe Lucasforums.com

Or perhaps it is actually someone FROM lucasarts trying to take revenue away from TellTale, just so they close down for lack of money to then take over the company and call it Lucasart TellTale division! OMG. SUE LUCASARTS!

What some people won't do for money... :| I'm really sorry to see this. The best thing I can do is to order a T-Shirt from TTG with the Monkey Island logo. Which I did. At least we won't support the stupid-stealing-ebayers.

That is one thing... BUT stealing a fanart and making a T-Shirt out of it, then selling it... man, that's just low. Honestly. It's a beautiful fanart piece and I was shocked when I saw it being used like that, without approval from anybody.

Exactly what I tried to get across, but better said.

The only thing I have to add is that stealing a piece of official art is equally as vicious of a theft. We care about the fanart one because we know how much heart was poured into it, but this is telltale, as much heart was poured into the art THEY made, and it's just as illegal to steal THAT.

Either way it infuriates me, taking someone else work, pasting it on some shirt and selling it for profit. Probably didn't take them much time at all and I bet it will sell.
