lollll, that reminded me of a time the Art Director for Wreck it Ralph(?) did an AMA. Some poor soul wanted the ADs opinion of their fan art T shirt designs and the ADs response was something like
"Looks great! btw I forwarded these to our legal dept :)"

I always see digital artists create and sell fan art online of big IP. I am assuming they are small enough to fly under the radar. How legal is this practice, and what would happen if the original ip decided to pursue legal actions as against an individual?
