Hasbro Applies for Trademarks for Several Familiar Names

Hasbro has been busy registering some familiar names with the US Government Patent and Trademark Office. Interestingly Hasbro already has all of these names registered. Check out the list below. Could these be characters/figures they plan to release soon?

I like seeking Wing Saber and Vector Prime on that list. These will probably be part of the Prime or Generations line.

I love Vector Prime. Happy to see him back. A lot of other cool names on that list to, so hopefully we see something come of this.

I wouldn't hold my breath. Hasbro is more than likely just maintaining trademarks on names they already have.

Can't be done. Hound/Jazz/Tracks etc are too common to be trademarked.

I'm not holding out hope for any immediate releases, though a classics-verse Strika would be awesome.

The names of Hound and Vector Prime make sense due to their appearances (or mentions) in Exiles. Same goes for Scattorshot, with his appearance in WFC.

Nemesis Strika is an odd one. I guess they want to use "Strika", but couldn't, and so went with the next best thing. Should she appear in fiction, she probably won't be referred to with the "Nemesis" part.

Blight and Kickback may also seem weird, but it should be noted that these were two of the names of the two Energon Bruticus Maximus tank components.

Now, Wing Saber, that's an interesting pick. Wonder what he'll entail. In this day and age, he could be anything.
