Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

The shorter snout looks odd, but I honestly may not have noticed anything different if not for the publicity. Still can't believe this satisfies a copyright case, it's so trivial

And the clamshells behind the eyes are now stars.

They added scales on his arms, got rid of his stomach, and made him wider at the hips

How much would it honestly cost to settle this lawsuit and get uncontested ownership? Even with the change if they lose then these guys will be able to use the original design no?

Looks like TMac got most of the Phanatic's belly.

ATV has blue instead of black now, and it looks like the fuzz at the base of his snout [/PiP?] is gone

It won’t. It’s a pathetically poor attempt.

The changes suck. Upsetting that they're changing a pretty iconic mascot.
