here's the old saying: your mom and i have never met or been married, but i could sue her for divorce...

my specialty is real estate litigation, but as i recall, you cannot use a likeness w/o consent. i would say you ABSOLUTELY could get sued; who would win is something else.

but: ask yourself this: even assuming mel or whomever would want to bring out the cannons to kill a mosquito, who can afford the lawyers to fight this? plus, i would imagine that if he really cared, he could get an injunction against you to make you stop, and then sue for damages, etc.

probably not worth it.
