Like Radiotrash, I aim not to condemn but to enlighten. Plagiarism was, is, and always will be an outright crime, especially for those who were deceived with art stolen, and were made huge profit of without their knowledge and consent. Here below are sample works stolen from well-known bjd companies and, based on their responses, are not too happy about it.

Credit, as always, go to Radiotrash (http://www.radiotrash.org/mijn/) for exposing the blatant tracing of these famous bjd company photos. I uploaded the images to my own Photobucket account as courtesy to the website by not consuming their bandwidth via hotlinking.
