This record shows

The public chronology, source-linked records, and each party's stated position.

It does not decide

A final ruling on priority, confusion, intent, copying, liability, or damages.

One-minute orientation

Three distinctions make the record easier to read.

Source-linked facts, a party's interpretation, and undecided legal issues are not interchangeable.

Documented

Public materials and blockchain records connect RACERVERSE with Lucky Machines products, paid purchases, and delivery before Mattel's filing.

Lucky Machines' position

That combined mark-product-sale record supports source-identifying trademark use, not merely the name of a fictional setting.

Unresolved

The TTAB has not finally decided priority, confusion, intent, registrability, or any other merits issue.

Essential chronology

Key dates frame the public record.

Project history, completed commerce, Mattel's filing, and later procedure are distinct facts with different evidentiary weight.

Lucky Machines' position

Earlier operating history

Lucky Machines identifies October 2021 as the start of racerverse.com operations. Preserved project records support continuity, but this is not presented as the technical-use anchor.

Paid purchase and delivery

A public Avalanche PurchaseKeys transaction records 0.54 AVAX paid and three Mint Keys delivered.

Mattel filed U.S. Application Serial No. 97708782 for HOT WHEELS RACERVERSE.

The docket lists entry 31 as the plaintiff's opposition or response to a motion.

Documented fact

The docket lists entry 32 as Mattel's motion to strike its own earlier motion to compel. The public docket still shows the proceeding as pending; the filing is not a Board ruling.

Documented fact

Trial dates reset

The Board entered docket entry 33, TRIAL DATES RESET, and granted the parties' consent motions to extend the expert disclosure deadline and subsequent dates.

On September 30, 2026, Mattel moved to amend its answer and add new defenses (docket entry 34). Lucky Machines disputes them. The Board has not ruled. On September 17, 2026, the Board entered docket entry 33, TRIAL DATES RESET. The Board granted the parties' consent motions to extend the expert disclosure deadline and subsequent dates. Expert disclosures are due October 13, 2026; discovery closes November 12, 2026; plaintiff's pretrial disclosures are due December 27, 2026; defendant's pretrial disclosures are due February 10, 2027; defendant's trial period ends February 25, 2027; plaintiff's rebuttal period ends April 26, 2027; and briefing runs through August 24, 2027. This is a procedural schedule order, not a merits ruling. The September 7 entry 32 remains part of the chronology: it was labeled Mattel's motion to strike its own earlier motion to compel; Mattel withdrew its own earlier motion to compel, and the Board gave the filing no further consideration. The official docket controls procedural status.
