I'm surprised someone hasn't gone after him over copyright or trademark infringement. I suspect no one asked the toy companies that own the rights for permission. But I'm only guessing.

(Michael Bay, the “Transformers” producer, declined to comment on Dr. Howard’s decorating choices or the neighbors’ reaction.) I imagine at USD 25k a pop, he has the whole IP thing squared away.
