Supposedly Warner Bros is being alleged to have stolen artwork from another artist in regards to one of the European Blu-ray versions for the Masters of the Universe 25th anniversary edition.

The main issue revolves around an image of Skeletor used in the Swedish version that wasn't used for other versions of the film. Those versions use what Skeletor looked like in the film for the cover.

Quote:
Freelance illustrator and concept artist Dave Rapoza claims that his work has been used without his permission.

Rapoza – whose work has been commissioned by the likes of Bethesda, Riot Games, Blizzard, and 20th Century Fox for X-Men Days of Future Past – believes his fan art of Skeletor has been used on the cover of the Swedish Blu-ray rerelease of 1987’s Masters of the Universe.
