Is it illegal to manufacture a classic 32 panel 70's world cup style white truncated icosahedron football with the black pentagons on it?

Because the shops don't fucking sell them, and that makes me sad for some reason.

They're just on like Temu and shit like that, usually with weirdly small black panels.

- I really don't like what copyright leaves us with.
- Someone ought to invert the colors, stick it in a jokey box, and call it a fair use parody.
It's the Adidas Telstar style and yeah surprisingly hard to find any with that style. But derbystar sells them it seems. With branding ofc but a brand less one you'll probably need temu or something like that

Like with most things... I say if you're going to make it for your own personal use, go for it. As long as you don't sell it, they can't do much about it.
- Yeah, that's not the thing.
