I bet the parts would still be pretty expensive for people looking to upgrade their older models though. Special edition parts from the RS 1.0 and 2.0 are already crazy expensive even though they were sold here in the States.

And many of the RS parts can not even bought (through proper channels) without a VIN anyway.
I think maybe my first comment was a bit too brief to make my thought clear (posting in 2 minute windows can do that). The fact that it is a US trademark is a very good indication that there may be something coming. This I totally agree with. But they could also just be covering their ass since Subaru is well known for holding there names close.
All I was trying to get across is that a simple trademark does not mean anything is happening tomorrow so everybody should not get all excited and start planning on picking up a tS. Hell, it has already spread from a tS to a production BRZ STi possibly on it's way based purely on a comment on this thread! We are our own worst enemies when it comes to making shit up from nothing and then we slam the clickbaits for doing the exact same thing.
