By the way, there is precedent for "photographed comics" to be treated as valid sources. Way back in The Dalek Book — the first annual from the DWU — there was a fumetti comic strip called The Message of Mystery. And it's absolutely valid — even though we know that 100% of the pictures have been repurposed for this new story. That, to me, is possible precedent for allowing in a story told with photographs of action figures.

But if Robot Chicken were to do their take on Doctor Who using action figures, that would instantly be disallowed, because RC are, by their very mission statement, parodic.

It just all depends on the artist's known intent.

Where we have problems as a group is when the authorial intent is unknown — or, in one case, where the author has given multiple, conflicting accounts of their intent.
