I don’t know, but I do know copyright and patent are two different kinds of protection, so it might be useful to look into how you think the shape would be protected.

Copyright would be for a creative work, and the enforcement by the right holder is allowed to be loose in selectively pursuing violators without losing protections.

Patent is for useful inventions or designs rather than expressive works. Skimming the Theodore G Brown soap, it seems much more involved than a simple shape and I can see why it was able to be patented.

The feeling of cheaply produced 80s and 90s cartoon productions. Clean, minimal lines with no or very little lineweight variation. Bright colors and distinct silhouettes. Facial structures somewhere between to 80s TV cartoon anime, which were themselves often inspired by American cartoons and not nearly as distinct as modern anime most often is, and American comic books as drawn by Jim Lee or JRJR. Big influence of technology designs from blocky designs like Transformers, and comics like Liefeld where guns or robots are just stuffed with nonsense greebles.

Or at least I’m trying.

Scary numbers.

Ah yes, the elusive they.

There it is.

Davin Felth, my man!

The medallion is also cursed.

Cagoules (cowls) were the term used by the French to refer to these paint camouflaged outfits. French artillery troops begin to make the outfits themselves after realizing that enemy planes could spot them from the air.

That and all the other reasons. The only stick grenades still around in appreciable numbers are anti-armor grenades where the handle has a parachute inside. For normal fragmentation grenades, essentially everyone has moved to non-stick grenades (except the USMC who want to make stick grenades).

Even in WW2, the Germans produced more of the boring looking Model 39 grenades than they did of the iconic and eye catching stick grenades. People notice what they want to notice.

Oh no.

Why are these all cropped like this?
