DRAGON BALL Z

What this record means

The record shows that “DRAGON BALL Z” is a live Principal Register registration owned by KABUSHIKI KAISHA SHUEISHA, a corporation organized in Japan, and it was renewed as of July 2 2019. The registration covers class 028 goods described as “games, playthings and sporting goods, namely, collectible toy figures and action figures and action figure accessories… plush toys, toy vehicles, dolls and role‑plaything game equipment… activity sets and playset environments comprised of mini figures/scene displays, toy figures, and spin‑top toys.” A similar name used on comparable toys, action‑figure lines or related play equipment would raise the closest record‑based concern because the goods are narrowly defined to those categories. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “Dragon Ball Z” in unrelated fields. No prosecution history is listed, so there was no supplemental‑register amendment to note. The most recent status event is the July 2 2019 renewal, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market toys or similar play items under a comparable name.
