Shame about the Old West Town. Looked like a nice set. I just hope that they produce enough of the BTTF sets so t isn't a feeding fenzy on Ebay.

Are you certain that those character likenesses are not already owned by Universal Pictures? I doubt the characters in the set(if they are in the set) are going to be named Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd. The same could be said about Delorean having to be paid for using the likeness and name of their automobile(Which by the way is now owned by Steve Wynne). Also if you don't mind me asking, out of curiosity, why do you sign your posts? Seems a bit odd signing posts one after the other in the same thread. Especially since your name is right there in the upper left hand corner.

I don't have anything else to say on this subject as I feel that you jumped the gun and made an accusation that didn't warrant it. you are a top builder, but need better social skills.

I have no personal grudge with you at all, in fact I have more respect for you as a builder than I do anyone else, but not as much respect as a poster because your mannerisms are quite often rather crass. They are similar in the aspect that they both have technic interiors and Brick exteriors, but they are built entirely different. Posting a picture of that 20 piece model in the first picture verifies what I have described with your attitude. Didn't you post up a project on here a few months ago and use someone else's gearbox design and not credit them or even acknowledge that you were using someone's idea?

For every one thing that you can find on this "Plagiarized" model that is the same or similar, I could point out at least 10 things that are different.

Sariel, you are one of the best builders in the world, no one can deny you that, but you are also very fearless and a bit egotistic in your posts and I think you need to come off of your high horse.We all get it, you wrote a book.

I had to join up to comment on this matter as I am a person who absolutely hates plagiarism in building. But also quick to defend something for which plagairism is being accused of. I see 4 things on this model which are similar or the same, but overall, I would say 95% of this model is original and quite different from the one that is claiming to be copied from. If you take away the wheels(Which I have seen somewhere before) and the round disk piece in the front, I see nothing that is remotely the same. I think an apology for false accusation may be in order.
