Go, Go, Hasbro Rangers!
Written by rychu79
You read that headline correctly folks! Hasbro has announced today that they will be acquiring the rights to the Power Rangers franchise along with multiple other properties to the tune of $522 million.
“Power Rangers is an iconic brand built on a heritage of great storytelling and merchandising with tremendous upside potential when fully executed across Hasbro’s Brand Blueprint,” - Brian Goldner, Hasbro’s Chairman and CEO
This is the second time that Sanab has sold the Rangers to another company. The Rangers were first sold off to Disney back in 2001 only to be reacquired by Saban in 2010.
I wonder how this will affect the upcoming Hasbro cinematic universe that's in the works? Will we see the Rangers go up against the Transformers? Only time will tell.
