VickyFox 353 Posted March 13, 2019 I highly doubt it will happen due to Little Orbit opening themselves up to potential legal action due to using Marshmello's likeness without his permission. If they did try and get his permission then some sort of legal document would needed to be written up to prove that both parties are in agreement with this use. Little Orbit is a business and are making profits off of APB:Reloaded. If there was content in game which they do not have permission to use then they can be taken to court as they could make money from it at someone else's loss. This is why cars in game have unique names like the Dolton Boardwing when we all know it is a Ford Crown Victoria but by design. It's not an exact detailed copy of the actual car. At the same time, Little Orbit would be giving advertisement in their game for other's content but also be at a loss when they could of have been paid for the advertisement. Tasty Burger has a mascot that is a clown, If Tasty Burger was changed to McDonald's without some notice to McDonalds then again highly doubtful that McDonald's would pay for advertisement that was originally free and didn't ask for! Again even if original brand holder did benefit, they can still demand for it to be stopped as permission wasn't asked for. Failure to adhere to the cease and desist order would lead back to court. Players in game can get away with because they are not making any money with their own copy of costumes, music and pictures and the original creator isn't making a loss so it can be considered for fair use. TL;DR A business cannot just use other people's work without some sort of permission. If they did make money off of other's work then they can be taken to court for the losses to the original creator. This doesn't rule out making a helmet that is just shaped like a cylinder and a generic top and pants, but it just can't be MarshMello. You can make it into it other clothing and a helmet into Marshmello but Little Orbit can't make it for you. It's not just a costume, that outfit is an image that he puts on so you can identify him as, it is part of his brand. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What anti tank rifles that can pierce through objects and destroy heavyweight vehicles in 2 shots cars basically a beefed up heavy hvr with less mobility and slower reload time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's called the Colby Commander, It shoots past objects. And the Showstopper "thunder" can destroy any car in 2 volleys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_chain 176 Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) Cuz fortnite has them also? Meh. I personally want a pack of customizable animal masks. I feel this would appeal to a lot more people than a marshmello outfit. Edited March 24, 2019 by _chain Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spoiled 23 Posted April 30, 2019 LO could give us a blank box to put on our head. Then allow us to customize it any way we like. It wouldn't be ripping off anyone or anything, It would just be a canvas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
