Mecha > has a strongly established generic use tradition. I was leaning more towards "bot" as in "MegaBot", "Bot Pilot", and "MiniBot". I considered using "mecha", and I recognize that it is a generic term used alone, but used in combination with "proto" or "warrior" I expect that it is still actionable. Perhaps a judge will determine that it is sufficiently different to avoid infringing the trademark, but I'd rather avoid triggering the suit altogether. I believe that "bot" is far safer (it also has a longer pedigree, with a wider recognition). Still, thanks for the advice! > > -- > Raul >
