The question is are they really. We have seen that they've registered a bunch of stuff but I'm not aware of any kind of audit trail showing how and from whom they got the rights to do so. Maybe all the paperwork is in order and of course they have no obligation to make such details public.
We have to bear in mind that they tried to take the Amiga brand by stealth when they thought nobody was looking. Who's to say that isn't the case with regard to everything else they appear to own.

Having observed the previous legal battle between Hyperion and the Amiga parties I don't think we can really predict how this will eventually play out but it does look like Hyperion may have come unstuck this time.
If the Amiga parties win and regain control of all they conceded to Hyperion then who is to say they will stop there. They have let a lot of their IP slip through their fingers and it's in the hands Cloanto. The Amiga brand and a few other marks are all that the Amiga parties can sell or do anything with right now and Cloanto are brazenly claiming on their website that the Amiga brand is theirs. Don't you think they'll be seen as a threat that needs to be addressed once Hyperion have been dealt with.

If Cloanto's trademark and copyright registrations aren't built on steady foundations it could just as easily be the beginning of the end of their Amiga related activities too.
