Two of Hasbro's trademarks which had been put forward for their sixth year renewal, have now been passed to the paralegal team. If they are happy withh everything, then both marks should have their registrations extended. The marks are for Thrust and Soundwave.
The applicstion for Soundbite, which we recently reported had been assigned to an examiner, has made it past the first stages of registration. The mark has been put into a state of 'LIE', which means it will wait approximatly two months before being published for opposition. At that point, challenges to Hasbros application can be filed. Assuming there are no challenges, or more to the point, no successful challenges, the mark should then become registered. This will probably be between 4 and 6 months from now.
