This reminds me of the Cricut and grosgrain debates. I pronounce it like topic as well, but found this on Wikpedia:
"As noted above, the Japanese spelling and pronunciation of the word "Copic" is pronounced as ko-pi-kku.
Although the pronunciation of "Copic" among English speakers is debatable and pronounced differently by different people, often "caw pic" or "coh pic," it can be inferred from the Japanese derivative "ko-pi-kku" that "coh pic" (such as the co in "coat" or "cope") is the correct pronunciation."
