Trademark and Tradedress in Product Package Design
Trademark and Tradedress issues are discussed in a Quick Overview. Featured as examples are a Knock off Spiderman Toy and a Trade Dress infringing Fake Disney Girls Playset Featuring Fake Disney Princess art and an Infringing Logo design.
Trade Dress of products is becoming a very important factor in Product Design. It can bring litigation as easily as Copyright, Patent and Trademark infringement.

Nice find! That “Dishy” is hilarious!! How do you find this stuff?
This is a great example of trade dress and copyright infringement by selling look-alike products that will likely confuse the consumer into buying what they think is the popular brand; in this case Disney.

Mike this is an awesome channel idea! I’m in love with toys myself and sometimes purposely go out to different stores just to spot the fakies. I can’t wait to see more of this stuff. It’s amazing what people have the balls to make and produce. Geez.
I think Trade Dress …
I think Trade Dress is more trying to capitalize on an existing series or established product line by making things similiar to it.
What you describe I’m not sure would be trade dress infringement simply because two aspects of two series or established product lines have similiarities.
A lot of villians in a lot of series have a black cloaked figure with red eyes, for example. This is largely an aspect of honorable and honest business practice, and less about variety.
This is an …
This is an excellent and informative video, and actually hits on a subject that touches upon my work.
Good to see people using the internet to inform, without the sensationalization. But it would help if you also quote some sources where we could learn more, giving us a head start if we want to research or learn about things more.
And last but not least, Thanks.

Turok picture from …
Turok picture from one of its video games was added to one of those cheap 5 dollar toys. But it was a robot not a hunter or dino toy. Its the box art of Turok 3 with the main character in orange yelling up on the box.
Over all it does make me wounder how bad it gets when people make fake Trading Card’s. I mean if you go to a flea market area do you ever find a row a cardboard boxes setting out with 1 to 5 dollar signs up there.
Fake Yugioh and Pokemon cards. Which is just too funny to see.

I rather spend a little more for a toy to get the ACTUAL product then save money and buy a knock off toy that falls apart.
