That's exactly what I'm referring to. Hasbro lost a shitton of TF names because they hadn't used them in so long (Hot Rod, Bumblebee, Shockwave, Bluestreak, Ravage, and a bunch of others. Cost them a fortune to get 'Bee and Ravage back, and they only caught Shockwave when it lapsed from whoever had it. Aaron Archer said they *almost* lost Megatron, once).
Playmates hadn't used Wingnut in so long, someone may have taken it for something else. Also, it doesn't really matter what Nick or Mirage owns/owned, as the toy trademarks/copyrights doesn't work the same way.
