Harmony Gold (owners of the Robotech license) is now suing Hasbro under the claim that Hasbro's SDCC Exclusive uses their Veritech design.

Harmony Gold, the main distributor of Robotech, have filed against Hasbro claiming that the 2013 SDCC GI Joe vs. Transformers exclusive set violates their intellectual property. Or more specifically, the Skystriker decoed as the G1 Jetfire toy. Since that original Jetfire toy lifted its color scheme directly from the Macross toy from which it was licensed 30 years ago, Harmony Gold believe this new toy is too close to their property.
