Guys I found that bootleg Spanish Medabots app that "bought the trademark in 2017" after it "lapsed in 2012" despite the game "being rereleased on Wii U VC in 2015" AND is fighting the IP owner in Japan and

WHAT.
IS.
GOING.
ON.
Now you know me, I do not like making fun of amateur artists, but I am making a special case for this guy because medabots. If he did not choose this hill to die on, I would not be going out of my way to make fun of his attempt at making an app game with art like this
THE ROBOTS LOOOOOOK LIIIIKE JELLLOOOOOOO

Who is on the left? Some weird looking komandog knockoff? Why does sailormate's bootleg look like its melting?
Quite arguably the biggest sin is this guy has this picture of the medabot parts snapping onto the chassis like it's a seperate entity

in the original, the tinpet acts as a brain/skeleton & it's an homage to gunpla & similar robot model kits.
Furthermore, this reference to model kits is completely intended, as seen on the numerous boxart that point out the scale of the robots, as if the boxart is for a model kit, 1/24
The plot here is too convenient! In the original, Henry gets his medarot as a gift after he finds a medal.

In 2, Ikki totally wants one but cant afford it because when 90s capitalism meets a kid with hobbies, something has to give, & ends up spending errand money (by force)
And then the world building.

Basically, instead of medabots being an expensive hobby for 90s kids that teaches them engineering basics and used exclusively for battling,
http://medabots.es  makes them basically the robot equivalent of netnavis or roombas with sawblades
Also there's a trailer. seems to be set on this thing called medalympics, the same concept as Medarot S.

Only thing is

THIS TRAILER APPEARED 3 MONTHS AGO, MEDAROT S RELEASED IN JANUARY.

SO NOT ONLY IS THIS PUNK AN IP THIEF, HE'S ALSO A PLAGARIST

Ca...can someone like help me? I'm losing my mind. I'm not the only one seeing this right? Why is no YouTube talking about this???
Maybe I'm up TOO early but I'm gonna @ all my friends when I wake up, I'm going absolutely feral over this
