Re: Lunacy Game Ball Kits: for sale!

Based on the analysis of the real balls as compared to the homemade versions, and the availability of the greek paper football techniques on line, it would be difficult to actually say that they are violating anyone's copyright.

The balls are not made of the same materials, do not have the same imbedded structure in the strips, do not have the same fastening method... I could also include the finished ball characteristics - do not have the same durability (they're better), the same squishiness, and only approximate the same weight and size.

On top of that, the game ball kits from Team 980 aren't even balls. They are offering a do-it-yourself kit. And not called Orbit Balls, but called Lunacy Game Ball Kit. I'd say they are in the clear on this one.
