Busted! - Unlicensed Piñatas

According to an article in the LA Times, piñatas sporting the likeness of cartoon characters were the subject of an undercover sting by entertainment industry representatives.

"Disney declined to comment on the piñata lawsuits, filed in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles in February and April."

I did a little research and found a number of Disney characters in piñata form. For example, Ariel (aka the little mermaid). I don't know about you, but I'm not sure the piñata likeness does the cartoon image much justice.



Digg!
