LittleBigPlagiarism: Sackboy stolen for Brazilian show

LittleBigPlagiarism Monday, Monday, July 20, 2009 3:41 PM

It looks as though the loveable Sackboy has been stolen for a Brazilian show.

The opening for a Brazilian children's show on SBT (a Brazilian television network) features characters that have an uncanny resemblance to LittleBigPlanet's Sackboy.

The opening to the TV show can be found below thanks to XmurielnanetX and the resemblance hasn't gone unnoticed. One YouTube user comments: "LittleBigPlanet: Edição Especial Para Pobres," which translates to "LittleBigPlanet: Special Edition for Poor."

Moreover, the intro's characters also end up sitting on a logo featuring combined bits-and-bobs like the LittleBigPlanet logo, showing even more similarities.

How Sony will respond to the show's introduction is currently unknown, with a case for plagiarism likely being difficult to undertake. Find the show's opening below and let us know in the comments section if you think it looks like the PlayStation 3's LittleBigPlanet.
