I completely agree they might say yes, but I more like to lean towards teaching the right thing to do. It is still derived from their logo/property and is very much similar to the way that Shepard Fairey got in hot water with the Associated Press over his Obama Hope poster. That was a piece of art created from a photograph that no one even recognized for three years...
Sorry, I just got done talking about copyright in my graphic design class and I can't let go of the sad truths of ownership of an image and other intelectual property.
