Is it okay to port something from a developer and release it as an add-on?

I think LEGO made Badspot remove his current playertypes because they resembled too much like LEGOs product and like Lego Island after he declined their offer.

We can't afford Blockland getting sued by one of the biggest company for kid toys.

he tried to contact them once for something or another and they weren't returning calls or answering and so he just removed all lego content (even the studs said lego on them) after that just to be safe.

Destiny/Zack0Wzk0 has a working one. Though I'm unsure if he still has it. The reason no one has released it is because it is a developer's content, AKA, Badspot. No one has any idea if he would be alright with someone releasing his old content for an Add-On. So until someone makes a 100% working Beta Blockhead from scratch or gets permission from Badspot, this will never happen.
