The luo trademark case.- sources

Its a reply to some people in the recast forums. I've shortened their statements, but that's basically what they said/asked.

I don't believe luo owns these trademarks now.

The trademarks ARE registered to Luo, some of them are even validated (sources below). Yes, its ridiculous that these companies haven't filled the trademarks for themself the moment they got into business (like any european/american company would do), yes that was a stupid idea, but that doesn't change the fact that Luo now is doing something that has to be illegal (Stealing someone else work, then getting their trademark for yourself to boot them off the market? Come on. Not even a chinese judge would speak in their favour.).

Why are loongsoul, spiritdoll and dollzone involved? Aren't they Chinese companies?

Loongsoul, Dollzone/Dollchateau and Spiritdoll are chinese companies, and the DO have their trademarks for themself since a couple of years. Most companies that are currently affected are korean companies - the chinese companies are helping the korean ones out, because the whole thing IS affecting the BJD community as a whole.

China doesn't care about copyright, they won't care if someone holds a trademark.

Yes, the chinese don't really care for copyright or trademarks, but saying "well if no one's looking its okay if they do something illegal" is like saying "its okay to steal from other people, everybody is doing it". And its NOT. okay. Its especially not okay because Luo even tries to get the trademarks for european companies (Lillycat for example) - thats not just a punch in the face for recasting her dolls, thats far, far worse.

It's about fucking dolls, there's far worse out there!

People have gone to jail for far less than 'fucking dolls' - like spreading movies on internet platforms (copyright infringement) or selling software they don't own (same) or selling hack/cheats for other games (same). Just because there are worse things that copying dolls doesn't mean that a comparatively 'small' evil like this shouldn't be punished.

Why did they noticed it now, and not earlier?

Again, they're korean companies, and checking the status of your trademark in China isn't something you do every few weeks, especially if you've never applied one yourself. Thats like googling yourself the first time and finding a ton of negative confessions/feedback about something that could have been easily rectified a few months ago, but since you didn't know about them, you didn't do anything. Same problem here.

I still don't believe it. There aren't any sources! Antis are making this up to hate us even more.

I really don't know how you can say you need more information. What do you want? The companies are working on it, they have, by far, better things to do than keep the western part of the community up to date on everything they're now doing. The fact is that they ARE doing something, that they're working together, and that they know that the community is worried.

Sources.

F15dolls and puffypuffers on Instagram. Kudos to them bringing the whole thing to the western community.

First post translated, 25.4., 10:56:

Regarding the malicious registration of pirates by pirate traders, Wadao has been watching and following up since yesterday.

At present, Wadao has communicated with the agency that owns the agency rights. At the same time, it began to look for experts and lawyers in related fields to consult with them and strive to take effective actions as soon as possible to cope with the current situation. (At present, it is planned to focus on dealing with the industrial and commercial registration part, raise objections to the publicity period, invalid registration of successfully registered applications, and register their own trademarks as soon as possible to enhance self-protection.)

If there are other parents who share common aspirations or have relevant professional knowledge, please feel free to contact us. Although there are many issues that cannot be answered promptly, there is definitely a response from Nakajima.

The trademark is also misappropriated.

Then, 25.4 .,18:23:

So far, it has been determined that Doll Heart will unite with ADoll to solve the problem: dearmine, nine9, scretdoll, cocoriang, chicabi, ttya, kukuclara, lati....

Last, 26.4., 7:50:

Fl fan group: fairyland will not forget, ADoll main agent brand, Fairyland will be responsible for the trademark [fuel] @ Doll Island Adoll: So far determined to unite with fairyland community together to solve the club : dearmine,nine9,scretdoll,cocoriang,chicabi,ttya,kukuclara,lati....Hope that Korean businessmen are getting more and more inflated...
