drifand: one of the difficulties of taking legal action against counterfeiters is that they are often located in countries that don't really care about enforcing intellectual property rights or child safety laws, like China.Pursuing criminals across international borders relies on different countries' enforcement agencies cooperating with each other. Japanese companies like TakaraTOMY can file a complaint, but if Chinese authorities aren't willing to lift a finger, then there's little that TakTOM can do. The best thing that can be done to combat counterfeiters is for people to not buy counterfeits.
"Takasa" means 'height' in Japanese, and "Tony" is an abbreviation for "Anthony," so... the company must've been founded by some dude called Anthony who's high. Up.Originally Posted by Handsprime
For anyone who may not know, "Takara" means 'treasure,' and "Tomy" is an abbreviation for "Tomiyama" (surname).
