Hi Blueice, welcome to the SSF board.
The batsignal project has been terminated. I will make a few more of them, but those will go on ebay. I will post a link in this thread when I have one on ebay.

It's not finished yet, but it probably be finished either today or tomorrow. Will post pics when ready.

Awesome work. Just a suggestion, but you might want to think about rewording the item description - there's the possibility that Warner Bros/DC could position it as trademark infringement, so "superhero floodlight" or something might be a safer bet. From what I hear, they can be really aggressive about these sorts of things.

Glad you like it Aussieinnyc and thanks for the tip. I don't have much knowledge on the trademark stuff. But even if I have the word "CUSTOM" in the title and description, will I get in trouble? Or is it due to the use of the word "BATMAN" and/or "DARK KNIGHT"? If anyone can enlighten me about this, I would really appreciate it.

V-Raptor
10-12-2009, 03:54 AM
Yap, they surly could. (( And Warner Bros. really aggressive, so be accurate with them. Many companys takes it really easy, coz custom things are always sign of trademarks' popularity and it's edition not so big to be dangerous to the firm. But you never knows when some ^^^^^^^ would like to play "public prosecutor and lawyer" games. It's very funny in America, coz of the case law. We have different rules in Russia.... But, please, be carefully, bro. aussieinnycs' warnings are not out of the blue. ;)

No, this is completely wrong.

You could get in serious trouble with a title listing like that.

No, this is completely wrong.

On ebay!?!

Since 2008 I've seen COUNTLESS items pop up on there with similar titles. Anything ranging from TDK legos to costumes. Now I don't know if those sellers got in trouble but I've seen a ton of those auctions. I've bought and sold and I've never seen anything on ebay stating that you can not title your auctions with known words like "Dark Knight", "custom", "Batman". Not once.

I could see this being a problem on youtube, but ebay? Ridiculous.

I say keep it up there until someone official complains. The worst they could do to you is ask you to change it.

Snake Eater
10-12-2009, 10:02 AM
I could see this being a problem on youtube, but ebay? Ridiculous.

It most definitely is a problem, regardless of what you have encountered. Just a matter of chance, risk and luck. Chances are the auction will go through without a hitch, but I have had two custom Dark KNight figure sales taken down from me and multiple auctions I have been watching have also been removed.

I say keep it up there until someone official complains. The worst they could do to you is ask you to change it.

Worst they, (WB), could do is sue for copyright infringement. But that would likely never happen, eBay would just remove the listing instead.

DiFabio
10-12-2009, 10:49 AM
Man, I guess a person doesn't understand an issue until they encounter it first hand. I had no idea that copyright infringement would be a problem with an online market. Getting in trouble for something as simple as a title for an auction? Guess we learn something new everyday.

It's kind of disheartening to have to name this thing "superhero floodlight" or some other cheap, gimmicky name. It's a custom BAT-SIGNAL and a high quality one too. It really affects how this thing will sell on the market. With a description like that, some people might glance over it.

Sorry Snake, I didn't realize that it could cause such a complaint from a company. Did you complain when they took your items down or did you just let it go without question?

viezure
10-12-2009, 11:59 AM
You could call it "1/6 custom movie bat-signal fit for batman/joker" :D

And as a curiosity question, why don't you sell them to people here, seeing as once there was a list and such?

aussieinnyc
10-12-2009, 02:40 PM
Copyright is such a complicated area, and it's not made any easier by laws differing slightly around the globe. As far as I'm aware there are allowances for creating and selling custom, small run (possibly only one-off?) items provided they don't already exist in the marketplace - or maybe it's if by selling them you don't infringe on someone else's license...I really am not sure. With that sort of uncertainty places like eBay and YouTube err on the side of caution and respond accordingly to most requests from large companies with big legal teams. (I'm actually in favour of companies protecting their artistic rights, but that's a different story)

My point though, was that I know Warner and DC vigorously protect their trademarks, including titles like "The Dark Knight" and "Batman", and you can be sure that they have trademarked "bat-" prefixed words out the wazoo as well ("bat-signal" included) so if you want to maximise your chances of the auction staying up, it might be an idea to remove the trademarked words.

All you have to say, is that your selling in it from your own personal collection. Regardless that he made it himself or not, your allowed to sell your own stuff. So just ad that into your auction that it comes from your personal collection.

good luck

Again, not true. Even if you are giving it away you could get in trouble.

Thanks a lot guys for your input. The copyright could indeed cause a problem. I went to change the title yesterday, but apparently once an auction has bids on it, you cannot change it anymore. So, I'm probably screwed if they notice it. If that happens I'm going to tell them that DiFabio made me do it so he can sell his batsignals :lol.

One more question I have is if they only check/control the title of the item or also the content/description? Snake Eater, maybe you can answer this, since you had the misfortune of having two of your items taken down.

I've also finished the batsignal and will post a few pics later in the day:).

Sorry for the delay, but I didn’t like the initial set of pictures I took Monday with Elektro’s camera. Last week I received my Harvey Two-Face figure courtesy of Joe, and wanted to integrate it in the shots. But I didn’t like the way they turned out, mostly because Harvey’s collar and tie just didn’t want to stay the f down. So yesterday I spend a few hours fixing the collar and tie and re-shot everything, but this time using my brother’s camera.

The batsignal itself has a few small improvements compared to the first-batch version:
• The outer housing has been reinforced around the pivot points.
• The projector light now has a better cover plate.
• The battery compartment is now better attach and therefore allowing the battery cover to open and close smoothly.
• The side to side rotation doesn’t have a 1 millimeter clearance anymore and therefore will rotate more smoothly and not shake.
• Circuit board has been moved in to the base, making it easier to solder and preventing the issues with the remote receiver.
• Also no paint issues this time.

Working on this batsignal was more fun this time. Probably because of no pressure or deadlines. Only thing that worked on my nerves was the weather. Exactly when I was ready to start painting, the temperature dropped below the recommended painting temperature. I waited a few days, then got angry, did some thinking, improvised and painted anyways. It takes longer to dry, but it works:lol. It took me about 4 weeks (working at least 6 to 8 hours a day) to finish the batsignal. Probably could have done it in 3.5 weeks if it wasn’t for the weather:taz.

Anyway, that’s about it. Pictures are below, and if anyone missed the link, here it is again:

Best of luck if you’re going after it. If not, I hope you at least enjoy the pics :D

I want to sell a few more, but I cannot guarantee when or if it will actually happen. Because there are 3 more custom TDK things I want to make and will be starting with the first one probably tomorrow. The first one is not that complex compared to the batsignal, but the second and the third are definitely more complex then the batsignal and therefor time consuming.

All mine All Mine :rotfl LED lights are just Ikeas :) My next move will be fiber optics if I ever manage to figure out how to do it cheap

As for the OP, it's not the most straight up move but in the end it is his choice as it is his mad work. I am just surprised madman Ro went that high (actually Rishi didn't win :P) :lol

Actually the last 10 seconds. I don't put my bids 5 days in advance. Congratulations again ....bat freak!!! :) Please post some images when you get it in your hands.

Thanks, Rishi!!
I usually wait til the last 10-15 seconds myself with eBay auctions. With this auction, I figured maybe I'd try to ward them off by bidding early and letting them see themselves get outbidded. :) Well played, dude!! I'll be sure to snap some pics when I get it.

OMG U$800 You are crazy :rotfl But congrats Ro That is one sick piece that both you and the OP should be proud of..... I think you need a case to fit the batman and the light in ;) btw you are definitely more mad than me now :rotfl
I almost tempted to see if I can make this out of acrylic :monkey5

Thanks Geil!! I told ya, once you get bit by the 1/6 bug, it's all over for your wallet!! :monkey1

I was going to let this one slide seeing as you just paid $800 for a nice flash light but what the hell...I have a reputation to uphold.


I think Difabio was calling you out with the wedding ring joke. I think he was comparing the notion that you might have paid more money for this batsignal than you did for the wedding ring. Thank goodness you didn't. It is a nice batsignal. WAYYYYY too much though.

Here's your two cents:

Ouch, wow guys.

When I saw the first batch and the quality and detail that went into them, I told myself I wouldn't let the opportunity go by to own one if it ever came along again. I was on the original list, albeit pretty far down. I just couldn't let this chance go. I had the disposable income to bid on it, so I did. You guys who are congratulating me, thanks a lot. Anyone else who thinks I'm crazy or just plain dumb, you're entitled to your opinion...and you're probably right. :) But, I'm happy with the purchase and I can't wait to get it.

V-Raptor, I do also own both the Bat-pod and Batmobile. I'm waiting on Geil's awesome cases to finally be able to display them!! :)

Peace, freaks!! :rock

LEADERCOBRA

Hey all. Sorry I’ve been away for a while, but I was out of the country to visit my dad. He was diagnosed with a terminal illness, so I decided to go spend some time with him. Glad I did, since they where his last few weeks. A few more days and he would have reached the age of 75. Nevertheless, he had a long and adventurous life. I will most certainly miss him.

I skimmed thru the post I’ve missed and want to thank all of you who posted supportive messages. Also thanks to those who send me supportive PM’s. I really appreciate it.

SnakeEater and ro926: Glad you guys are happy with your batsignals. The pictures look awesome.

My unexpected trip to visit my dad really set me back financially, so sadly I’m forced to sell a few things and that includes my own batsignal. Don’t really want to, but bills don’t pay themselves. So for those of you still interested in a batsignal, here is the link:
