Transformers Trademark News

In an slighltly weird move by Hasbro and the USPTO we have found some new trademarks filed by Hasbro Inc for:

  1. COMBINER WARS
  2. COMBINER FORCE

The oddness is that whilst the applications are new they have a prior registered date associated with them as if they are actually follow up applications which is indicated by their status of "New application will be assigned to an examining attorney approximately 3 months after filing date.".

This could indicate a change in procedure by the USPTO.

Remember we bring you the trademark application news first. Expect other fan sites to publish this news in 2-3 days ;)
