I think this is interesting, and I wanted input from others:
With GW's announcement/rumor that they'll be releasing a Doom of Malantai kit, it got me thinking about whether not this was the proverbial "straw that broke the camel's back" when it came to Chapterhouse Studios. Chapterhouse created a model for Doom, used the exact same Doom of Malantai name. The model, though shown finished and painted in December, has not arrived for sale, though it is still listed in their news section.
I'll preface my next statement by admitting I think it's ignorant and a bit arrogant of them to use the actual name from the book, where every other 3rd party miniatures creator seems to have the sense to not, but I think this could have been the tipping point for the lawsuit, particularly now that it seems GW will be producing its own model.
Thoughts, comments, etc?
