There is a pretty available d20 treatment of SF out there on the interwebs.
WotC WotC sells over 50k TSR classic titles over 9 years in Washington State alone, 2000 Star Frontiers over the past five.

Now Hasbro doesn't need Star*Frontiers because they are making a lot of money with the licence of Star Wars, and if people bought it, then Hasbro also would sell toys of Star Trek.
Hasbro has got a lot of "dead" franchises, but that doesn't mean these can't return any time, although maybe "reimagined".
My theory is the setting of Gamma World will be added to D&D multiverse. We know firearms are very powerful, but in Gamma World firearms aren't found easily, and even if you could craft them, these aren't designed to work for a long time, among other reasons the metal of the canon is heated too much when you shoot, and the bullets should be saved for the worst enemies.
A playtest of a no-fantasy setting in the D&D VTT shouldn't be impossible, and I guess the feedback would be faster.
It is not only a new edition of Star*Frontiers, but also to use this system for licencing, for example WotC publishing RPGs of videogames (Overwatch, Fortnite: Save the World, Sunset Overdrive, Mass Effect..).
And if Hasbro finds the key to produce blockbusters maybe we could watch an action-live version of Star*Frontiers.

This pretty much torpedoes nuTSR. I don't think they have a worthwhile defense now that this data is readily available.

so let's make a few simplistic assumptions:
1: if sales were identical each year, it means about 5 555 sales a year.
2: if we assume that the state of Washington is proportional to the rest of the USA, it means 250 000 sales a year in the USA alone!
the "long tail profit" is real :O

It all appears to be old material from what is in the filing.
That said, if there were new material under the TSR mark that would make WotC case even stronger than it already is (and it appears to be plenty strong with the information given here just for the State of Washington).
Of course, IANAL, so will defer if I have missed anything.
