Print 3 photos, draw roughly around what you want each layer to be, cut out what you don't want from each layer. Glue up your backers before cutting. I don't envy you on this project. I'd cut a rabbit with a stake and stick it in a potted plant.

If they do have a license they are legal and have nothing to worry about. If they don't have one they are breaking the law. There is nothing grey about it, the laws are readily available on line to educate yourself. You can keep your eyes closed because you've gotten away with it for 35 years and maybe will till you give it up. Or maybe you cry the blues after your next show. Hopefully I enlightened at least 1 person here, but I am done with this thread.

Nothing Grey about it. Military logos are Trademarked and you need a license to sell the ones that they allow. https://dod.defense.gov/Portals/1/Documents/Trademarks/DOD Guide about use of seals logos insignia medals-16 Oct 15F.PDF

Many of Disney's characters are trademarked. If Disney fails to go after unauthorized use of a registered trademark they can lose the mark thereby losing big money that then hurts things like this https://www.thewaltdisneycompany.com/philanthropy/ As I said the liability doesn't go away. Lowering cost or giving a child a toy is way different than sending out a team of artists to paint some walls. Just because a toy has the label does not mean the maker can't be sued.
-
You skipped over my main point being liability. Disney is an entertainment company not a contracting firm. Walt died in 1966, we live in a sue happy world now. Companies with huge assets have enough lawsuits going without going out of their way to add more. Look at UPS. You will never see anyone running around town with an old UPS truck. Why? They crush every retired truck to avoid the liability they would incur if they sold them. Good on Grizzly for hooking up a vet. No doubt there was legaleze signing for the vet to accept the offer. Lowering costs or giving a child a toy is a totally different scenario until, God forbid, the child chokes on / gets injured by the toy or part there of. Liability doesn't go away because you made less on or gave away your product.
-
Think about the liability Disney would have had if they took on that project. Everything from are the walls sound, lead abatement if present, contractor licensing, insurance, blah blah blah. Now lets figure cost of transportation, food & lodging for the team. If you do it there will be hundreds if not thousands of day care centers, schools and others trying to get you to do the same for them. And the executive decision is... drum roll please... Sorry you have to repaint your walls.

With cars being stolen out in the parking lot, why go after the little shoplifter inside. Why go after the guy selling dime bags at the high school when you can get the guy dealing ounces at the nightclub...
