Yea, when I first got the hat, i'm like, that's from maplestory o.O

Oh wow, they did too! I didn't notice that till now.

Yea it does look like an exact replica of that hat 0:!!! I'm sure that's not the only Graal hat that's from Maple Story.

really, this is the only gfx i have found so far.

There were quite a few hats ripped from MapleStory, from what I've seen. Funny part is they didn't even bother to put it on the right side of the head, lol.

Uploaders have to be careful with this ****, it's not like Graal is some obscure game on the dark alleys of internet anymore. It's a fairly popular game now that makes a lot of money. Copyright = way more important than it ever has been before.

I went on era and found a hat from maplesrory, I don't remember which one

LavaClaw · 11-04-2011

The glowing pumpkin in the era halloween store looks a lot like the one on maplestory.

Uploaders are hypocrites,we the players get banned when using someone elses graphic but no they can just go and do whatever the heck they want. What you people think this is some dead computer game or site?! (MySpace) fix it or else MapleStory will use
LAWSUIT ATTACK!!

Graal uses GFX theft

There is a difference between outright stealing graphics from another game(especially competing games) and alluding to popular characters. Now, I haven't seen this Pikachu hat but I doubt it's actually a rip of any actual Nintendo graphics, though it probably does infringe on the character design. They need to probably switch it up, like changing the ears or something akin to that. Then it becomes a tasteful homage

I wasn't talking about a pikachu hat, in fact i didnt know there was one. I was explaining the next few events in a less serious way..
