But what a WEIRD name "Autobot Sqweeks" is. This means that:
a/ The name "Squeaks" wasn't available so they went with the incorrect spelling of "Sqweeks."
b/ Someone has already trademarked "Sqweeks!" WTH?!? Who the hell trademarks "Sqweeks"?? Are there people who are just squatting on deliberately misspelt trademarks for the fun of it?
c/ Hasbro was either unwilling or unable to get away with any other variant spelling like Sqweaks... so they had to attach "Autobot" on the front of the name.

But this also shows just how bizarre the world of trademark law is. We all know that Hasbro are now in a legal case with DC over their use of "Bumblebee," but that's absolutely nothing considering that someone, somewhere, is able to contest Hasbro over SQWEEKS! Sqweeks!
