Perhaps BrickLink admins don't want to deal with the copyright or trademark infringements that would be problematic for them. This is just from a member's point of view, the opinions expressed herein are my own, and are only opinions. Maybe those rules apply: 10.9 of the ToS: “Sale of Plagiarized Designs: Offer to sell, sell or provide MOC designs that violate others’ intellectual property rights, publicity or privacy rights as it is expressly forbidden by these Terms. Sellers who facilitate such transactions will incur penalties ranging from a warning to account suspension or termination depending on the severity of circumstances.” 1.2.5 of the Sellers ToS: “Custom Sets: Custom sets or instructions may be listed, provided they do not infringe on any intellectual property rights, including those of the LEGO Group. […]” I believe you are correct. The best kind of correct. Disclaimer: this is my opinion only. Cheers ... ghyde
