Slave Girl Leia for Charity

| | | Comments (4)
Leia Slave Girl.jpgSo I'm looking around for interesting intersections of intellectual property, charity and superheroic identity when I run across Heroes4Hire, a company that markets superhero impersonators for charitable events and stag parties.
And, oh yeah, for corporate events, but stag parties is funnier.
You've probably already spotted the IP issue facing H4H. In fact, so have they, which is why they seed the site with things designed to offset their unlicensed exploitation of others' intellectual property. For example, each character has a small disclaimer at the bottom of the page along these lines: "Lookalike Star Wars Leia Slave Girl is a custom-fan-made costume to resemble that of the film version - we are not affiliated with Lucasfilm or any other entertainment company."
The page for the Dalek takes it a step further. H4H advises the customer to contribute to the BBC's own charity, presumably as an act of atonement.
Using a Dalek or Slave Girl Leia in a charitable fundraiser may sound innocent enough, but it raises similar IP issues. Check out the language in the Heroes4Hire promo: "To make your charity event stand out from others . . . ." That's precisely one of the functions of a protected trademark--to distinguish the brand. Likewise the Dalek "built to raise funds for charity," which captures the link between fundraising and the marketplace.
The above H4H is outside the U.S.; there's also one in Texas that deals with these issues in another way: by not describing the characters by their actual names.

It is about finding cheap 70’s furniture, cheap Gucci Britt handbags so here we goProm Dresses! classic Look replica Prom Dresses! prada Bright Leather cheap 80’s Prom Dresses! cheap louis Vuitton Show Spring Summer 2009 handbags Here’s what I know, classic Look cheap no matter how hard you try not to date yourself by choosing the perfect stylish prom dress, louis Vuitton Monogram Multicolore replica trust me, replica Gucci Boston in ten to fifteen years when you look back on your prom pictures, cheap louis Vuitton Nomade Leather you will know that it really was ten to fifteen years ago. cheap louis Vuitton Mahina However, replica Gucci 2008 Collection around Halloween it’s o.k. to wear a prom dress from a specific era and what more fun look than that of the cheap 80’s prom dress. Hermes Kelly cheap handbags There’s not one! cheap Hermes Belts bags Although I’m a product of the 80’s, Hermes Box replica handbags I went to prom in the 90’s. cheap Prada Favorite bags I wore a simple but elegant long red sequin dress with a long slit up the front of the right leg. cheap Gucci Luggage Sounds, prada Crocodile Leather cheap handbags general enough right? coach Quadrate bags I don’t know what it is, Gucci Luggage replica handbags maybe my hairstyle, replica louis Vuitton Monogram Vernis handbags but when I look back at the photos, Gucci 2009 Collection bags I just can't see a graduating senior of today? Hermes Belts replicain that get up, prada Crystal handbags no matter how hard I try to envision it. The 80’s prom dress was a thing of puffy sleeves, cheap Dior handbags bright colors, replica Prada Favorite handbags balloon bottoms, Gucci Pelham handbags one shoulder ruffle, cheap Gucci Indy bags and ruffles, replica louis Vuitton Nomade Leather bags ruffles everywhere. louis Vuitton Show Winter 2008 replica handbags Some of the more “fast girls” wore the lace underneath their prom dresses and the lace glove-maybe I would have been a fast girl in the 80’s because I fancy that look (you know the CindyLuaper look) over the big puffy sleeves and such. Gucci Indy bags I remember my aunt going to her prom in the 80’s, prada Duffel handbags she wore red and white. replica Mulberry bags A white dress, cheap Prada Canvas bags red panty hose, cheap louis Vuitton Monogram Canvas bags red lace gloves (this is a true story-it’s all coming back to me as I write) cheap Dolce Gabbana handbags and she wore a red hat (yes, cheap Gucci Briefcase handbags she wore a hat to her prom-she was quite stylish in her day) the hat had a short fishnet veil that came down over the eyes. fendi Top bags Now that paints a funny picture, cheap Gucci 2009 WinterC ollection no matter who you are! Though we can look back and laugh at the fashion of the times, louis Vuitton Stephen Sprouse Collection replica handbags we have to admit that those were simpler times and the fashion was fun, cheap Prada 2010 New bags less stressful than today’s fashion. Gucci Boston replica Maybe that’s because we didn’t have the internet then and no one could plaster your picture on the first page of yahoo or Comcast. Gucci Briefcase bags I don’t think that there would have been enough server space to hold all of the fashion missteps of yester-year (also known as the 80s).
