This kind of impersonation/defamation is one of the edge cases where its good to have a DMCA process. You want to quickly take down something like this and then deal with the slow legal stuff over time.

Not that short-lived in practice, because it may have been passed but it was not enforced to oblivion like it is now.

They have a DMCA process. As far as I know it only helps in a case like this if they sue Funko or the brand management service. Itch is a small indie operation funded by actual commerce, so might not be able to afford it.

How much would be needed to afford it? Is it a fundraisable amount?
