WizKids has bee sold to NECA (National Entertainment Collectibles Association, Inc.), as can be seen here: http://www.wizkidsgames.com/ and http://www.necaonline.com/article/detail/278.

But they only write about the clix-games and the pocket card games. No mention of Shadowrun or Battletech. So that makes you wonder, who owns Shadowrun and Battletech?

Is it still in the hands of Topps, Wizkids or could we be so lucky that Catalyst has actually acquired the licenses?
