Really Hasbro? Even you won’t pay for the font?

I was partially joking. Hasbro, or at least their affiliates given license to use the MLP property to make stuff like merchandise and games, have been known to use Celestia Redux for a font instead of Generation B, probably because it’s free/cheap (made by a fan) and doesn’t cost money like Generation B does.
 
Just like how affliations of the Walt Disney Company, and/or Disneyland/other parks, use the unofficial Waltograph (Walt Disney’s signature) and Ravenscroft (Haunted Mansion ride) font instead of a font the company created and owns.

Jesus christ. They knew Hasbro used the font, because Hasbro bought the license to use it for certain things–namely the TV show logo.  
Hasbro is being sued because they used the font outside the license, and distributed it randomly–even making it available for download at one point.
 
This is not hard to understand…

So it looks like Font Bros knew about Hasbro s use of the font before hand. This will most likely kill there case .

Assuming Hasbro did steal a few things they should get some kind of settlement but their demands are over the top.

Thread Starter - Ends begins with word game

If i was a Judge, the first question I would be asking these “Font Brothers” is “Why did it take you five years to file this suit? As there is no way you did not, or could not have known before now that your so called font was being used given how much merchandise and such has already been made”

That’s just plain stupid. You could copyright and patent every shit i suppose. One side it’s somewhat nice that creators of something are protected, but the most time this shit gets out of control.
Fucked, silly world.
 
Yep. You’ve got portions of genetic code that are copyrighted. Both naturally-occurring plants and, possibly, sections of the human genome.
 
Copyright law is insane, and serves to restrict creativity and innovation more often than not nowadays.

First: Are these “font brothers” legit or are they patent trolls?
 
Sencod: And much more importantly. how much money do they have to burn on this lawsuit? Hasbro is pretty well known for their battery of Lawyers and this kind of trials take years to settle.
