Takedown requests from Games Workshop are nothing new, though. The company was an early player fighting the sharing of 3D printable models based on its intellectual property (IP) – even those shared for free

So they can turn around and charge ridiculous prices for minis.

GA’s stuff is all cosplay, so it doesn’t even touch that market, you’d think they’d want creators doing stuff like this because that’s how you get new players and fans
