This is so sad. They stole the idea of the rainbow loom from the family that invented it (a father) and making money off it. I hope people boycott it. The real rainbow loom can be found at learning expresses at Michaels, probably for cheaper than at toys are us.
these “loom” type toys have been around since I was in grade school and I’m 36…so not sure how that equates to them stealing it. Patents run out, many products on the market have a dozen twins. rainbow loom isn’t the first loom toy and cra z loom won’t be the last
Here’s the Patent: https://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=12&f=G&l=50&co1=AND&d=PTXT&s1=Cheong.AANM.&OS=AANM/Cheong&RS=AANM/Cheong
Looks like infringement to me!
should I tell the 7 year old girl that has 2 nails in a board for a loom that she is infringing also !! Last I looked this was the USA where we have the freedom to make choices and choose not to be monopolized by a sole provider…
By the way we went to Toys R US and the children I was with had an awesome time making 2 different types of bracelets each.. and they were FREE
