Vendors like to retain some control over how their product identity is used if only to prevent losing the right.

No,more like if products are WAY too close to existing real products, then don't use them or buy them.
The sienna bundle will likely not come back for a while, from what I read in another thread some of the make up were having the same name and look as actual existing make up, so might have been puleld because of that. The character and the room itself is still in the store, but not the make up and other props, and not in a bundle but as single products now (unless it's changed since I looked last)
So in other words… If we see something in the store we really like, and it contains props that look realistic enough to find in a local brick and mortar, buy immediately! the product will probably come down within a day. Props that realistic, apparently, could have copyright/trademark issues. And when (if) it comes back, those props we liked so much may well be gone, replaced with something much less realistic. (And if you do buy, make sure you don't update when it comes back out!)
So sad. That product had a lot of interesting props, over and above the makeup.
That is very sad. I had wishlisted the bundle. If the makeup items were too close to real products, I would have thought it would just provide free advertising to the 'real product' vendors.
