Alright, talked to a friend who knows Copyright laws in and out. It turns out a LOT of companies turn a blind eye to us making customs because of the LABOR that goes into it. Labor vs dollar amount means that most artists aren't truly making a profit. Companies make factory/machine produced things for fast production and profit off little effort. We make money NOT because of the character, not because it's a Pikachu or Rainbow Dash, but because of the labor that is put into it to make it look as well as customs do. As long as your work is not being passed off as official, it is okay.
