FASA didn't actually steal anything, exactly- they used the likenesses they had in good faith, because they -thought- they'd bought the rights to do so from a modeling company. As it turns out, there was no small question about whether the company that sold the rights had them to sell. (Supposedly Harmony Gold's rights did not actually cover Japanese model kits manufactured for export, and that's what the FASA mechs were based on, but the judge did not find this line of reasoning persuasive.) As a side effect, they later decided to go "gently caress it" to using mechs where the creators held any rights to the images at all. If Long retained any rights to the stuff he designed for them, he may have been caught up in that particular thing , but it wouldn't have been a specific, targeted, thing, just a change in company policy.

I know folks are already super-mad that Dog Boys aren't in the core for Savage Rifts but instead tucked into a Coalition sourcebook or something.

I can only hope that one of the terms of the agreement was that PEG handles everything about the kickstarter because they do good work on those, and pretty much deliver on time for the prediction or even a bit early.

So I just googled Grackle Tooth and apparently they're laid back cowboy lizardmen and I am okay with this.
