Because of legal considerations, we unfortunately can no longer include the Chandler and Wizard profiles in the RokPak ... For copyright reason we also won’t be able to display pictures of certain other amps as we had originally planned ... we also won’t be able to display pictures of certain other amps as we had originally planned.

Michael,
Oh, no - I thought the industry had long moved past this. Was the Chandler amp the GAV19T? I'm aware that Brainworx has a licensed plugin for that via Universal Audio (three profiles of which can be found in the Rig Exchange) but I'm not aware of a similar situation with Wizard Amps. I doubt that claims based on either would hold water, provided that the models were billed as "In The Style Of..." and the photos were your own. But I also know that merely the threat of getting lawyers involved would be enough to kill a project like this. How did these concerns come to your attention, Michael? I'm not saying that a corporate shaming is in order, but considering that neither intellectual nor design issues are at stake the only issue remaining might be trademark infringement - and that's an easy one to sidestep.
Perhaps those profiles could be released as Bonus Amps and tagged as Mystery Amp One and Two. The photos could be a silhouette of Sherlock Holmes, along with tonal description hinting at what they are (which is essentially what every modelling amp company did before Line 6 grew a pair and solved the problem with a disclaimer.)
