Hasbro just applied for a brand new M.A.S.K.: Mobile Armored Strike Kommand animated series trademark at the United States Patent & Trademark Office.
- USPTO Number: 98381363
- Trademark: M.A.S.K. MOBILE ARMORED STRIKE KOMMAND
- Trademark Description: Entertainment services, namely, an on-going animated series for children featuring children’s entertainment provided through television, satellites, radio, audio, video, electronic media and computer networks
- Owner: Hasbro, Inc.
- Trademark Date: Jan. 30, 2024
Interestingly, Hasbro has allowed the 2015 animated series trademark to expire (in 2020) without opting to renew it.
It should be noted that such trademark applications might not directly result in the creation of an animated series.
Back in 2021, multiple G.I. Joe projects were in active development including a live-action series based on Lady Jaye’s character and another shot at a G.I. Joe animated series. These announcements came after an activation of several G.I. Joe trademarks but ultimately resulted in nothing. The same can be said for the trademark and the development of a brand new Micronauts animated series for Hasbro’s Hub TV.
