Not to stir the pot, I'm not invested in this, but did Mr. D2 get permission from Lucasfilm to create Star Wars customs?  Just wondering if that is an all together different deal because he's not making money off of it like the guy who wrote the book.   ???

Right. I think that's the difference is that D2 is not doing it for monetary gain. If he were selling star wars figures, he might get in trouble. Even if he did sell one on ebay or something it would not be worth a lawsuit.

2 el jefe & bonniebeth: You're both right. It's just the question of ownership for the pictures that matters. You cannot steal peolple's work like that, even if it's just a hobby for most of us, and an actual work...
