How to explain the copyrighted doll?

Doll [gōngzǎi]

Word book

Basic definition

[gōngzǎi]

That is, cartoon doll. This word originated from Hong Kong and Macau in the 1970s. It is a new vocabulary with the flourishing development of the world's animation industry. Are there any image rights or copyright issues when making dolls?

The answer above is good, it is indeed illegal. However, I would like to add that making too many anime dolls is an infringement of their trademark rights rather than copyright. Because animated images are only a small part of a work, and copyright law focuses on protecting the copyright of the entire work. In fact, Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck are not used because they infringe on Disney's trademark rights.

Regarding portrait rights, not only cannot it be used for profit, but it cannot also be used for non-profit purposes. For example, if your profile picture of Andy Lau is used to promote a certain charity, it is illegal even if it is non-profit. How much is the copyright of an anime figure?

The copyright of an anime figure is between 500,000 and 1,500,000.

For fans of two-dimensional otakus, owning a set of their favorite anime figures is a very happy thing. But its high price makes many people only dare to look at it from a distance and dare not play with it. For this reason, there is a saying circulating on the Internet: "Figures can ruin your life, so be careful when entering your home." In fact, the main reason lies in the production process, and the secondary reason lies in the cultural value it embodies and represents.

First of all, when making a figure, it is the most basic prerequisite to obtain the copyright of the original character. If someone else’s original creation has not been authorized, even if it is made, it is still illegal. When purchasing copyright, a large amount of copyright fees are required. This cost must be calculated on the final consumer.

Doll:

Doll is a term introduced from Hong Kong, which mainly refers to dolls. In recent years, a doll that resembles a real person has gradually become popular. What makes these dolls different from other dolls is that these dolls have their own personalities.

In an era when toys and dolls flaunt their individuality, even dolls and toys must hold high the banner of individuality, and ugly appearance, short stature, and fierce looks may be synonymous with individuality. In addition, enamel is just a toy material. It is a bit soft and has good properties. It is generally used to make dolls. For example, the CS dolls that were very popular some time ago are made of enamel.
