Hmmm. Interesting. If you go to the toyhouse forum post they linked, it's posted by an account named ketayx. Ketayx's account was invited by an account named Valakul, which is clearly Valak. The artist styles might be different enough to be separate people living together, but the weird thing is Valak linked Ketayx's post as art examples and the wording is almost the same, but prices are slightly higher on ketayx's post. Weirdly, Valakul used their CSS to remove access to their art tab. Turning CSS off, you can access it and see the two's art styles are very similar. Valakul has all their characters on auth only. They also use the same profile CSS. I'm not sure what the relationship is between them, but it's weird.
Good catch. They even link to the Valakul toyhouse account on their FR profile, not the Ketayx one. Whatever Valak is trying to pull, they're doing a sloppy job at it.
