Illektron, LLC, a California-based company involved in creating, manufacturing and marketing Battlez brand collectible card games and accessories (see 'Battlez Plans 2-Player Special Edition'), has filed a complaint and motion for preliminary injunction against Playmates Toys, Inc. alleging trademark infringement and unfair competition arising from Playmates marketing of its Battle Dice game.

The Battlez collectible card & dice game is targeted at boys from 6-14, while an advanced game play version is recommended for ages 10 and up.

 

Playmates' Battle Dice game features licensed characters from Marvel (see 'Playmates Distributing 250K Sample Battle Dice').
