Read the attribution

Three categories should never be collapsed.

Documented

Public materials and blockchain records connect RACERVERSE with Lucky Machines products, paid purchases, and delivery before Mattel filed its application.

Lucky Machines' position

Taken together, that record supports source-identifying trademark use. This is an argument by Lucky Machines, not a TTAB ruling.

Unresolved

The TTAB has not finally decided priority, confusion, registrability, or another merits issue in the opposition.

Current procedural status

Pending. No final merits ruling.

On September 7, 2026, Mattel filed a motion to strike, listed as docket entry 32. The docket label identifies the filing but does not establish how the Board will rule.
