I put the term "tribute" in quotes because a tribute is generally something similar to, but not a replica of. It wasn't a knock against them. They clearly mark the mugs as being by Gecko/Cevola, so it's not like anyone should be fooled. My point was that what they're doing won't affect the price of genuine War Gods, and certainly isn't hurting the artist—unlike the Chinese wholesalers. So, yes, I'm agreeing with you! :wink:
