wilsonwu89 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 They just released a 2015 Baby Coin Set and it looks like a Neopet. I swear I've seen it somewhere before. Maybe my mind is just playing tricks on me. Does this look like a Neopet? http://www.mint.ca/store/coins/baby-gift-set-2015-prod2280779#.VKzEQSvF97o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruto Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 No... it looks like a pudgy stuffed bear. Are you thinking it looks like a Polarchuck? That's the closest resemblance I can figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane for Wax Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Kinda looks like a polarchuck but kinda looks like a teddy bear, too. I'd go with no, but it's always fun to say 'that looks familiar' yes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightfall8705 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Yeah, it looks a lot like a Polarchuck, but that bear is cute on that coin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelley Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 lol it looks like a less happy plushie polarchuck with long arms. That's an adorable coin but I don't think they had any influence from neopets. It does remind me of the petpet, though I feel like I always have neo on the brain! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kute Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 you know you've been playing neo too long when...... :P hehe frogadelic and ang94 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badmannersowl Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 It does actually look like that Polarchuck plushie with a slightly different shape and longer arms, but honestly it's generic enough that it's unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ang94 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 You only have to change something by 10% to call it your own. The longer arms would be 10%. But it is totally adorable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I don't think the likelyhood of the coin was intentional. Especially not for a site that barely seems to see 10k people WORLDWIDE. However regardless of that, that's not exactly important. Although yes, I can see some similarities to a Polarchuck,there isn's enough similarities to call it a copyright. Especially because I believe the law has been changed and you can now consider something your own after only changing... I forget if it's 10-15% of the original. Either way, I DOUBT there was intent, even if there was, OR wasn't. I don't think Neopets CAN or WILL do anything about it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodhi Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I once thought that of a CGI humming bird used by Samsung in aTV advert of theirs shown here in the U.K. It closely resembled one of Valenth.com's pets! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
