Now they're arguing over the scraps. The main part is that Mattel lost control of Bratz, which had already taken a major slide in popularity.

(Bloomberg) Bratz doll maker MGA Entertainment Inc. asked a judge to triple the $88.4 million in damages it won from Mattel Inc. and to award it attorney fees and costs in the seven-year fight over rights to the dolls.

In a proposed order filed yesterday in federal court in Santa Ana MGA asked U.S. District Judge David Carter to award it $177 million in punitive damages, $129.7 million in attorneys fees, and $32.4 million in costs. The company also asked the judge to award it $4.3 million in restitution from Mattel based on unfair competition claims.
