RODZILLA
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/InvalidatedWhat this record means
The record shows that “RODZILLA” is a cancelled Principal Register trademark owned by Mattel, Inc.; the registration was cancelled on Oct 15 2021 because the required Section 8 declaration wasn’t filed. The only listed goods are “toy vehicles” in International Class 028, so a similar name used for toys or model cars would be the closest area of concern, while uses in unrelated categories fall farther from the scope shown in the record. The cancellation means the USPTO record does not give Mattel control over every possible use of the word “RODZILLA,” just over the specific toy‑vehicle goods listed. The prosecution history shows the mark was originally registered in 1988, renewed in 2008, and then cancelled in 2021; no oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear in the supplied history. I’d treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a toy‑vehicle brand with a similar name.
