Does Hasbro Care About the Power Rangers Franchise

[@intervalaiccomix]

Welcome back! Glad you are well and hope your hiatus was good. Great video. I was shopping today and passed the toy isle. I also noted that all toys are hiding behind cardboard now. You don't even get plastic bubbles. You can't see the quality of what you're getting.

Yeah my target has barely anything! They have a few monster figures from the lightning collection, and the cosmic fury morpher toy, and a few of the ninja ranger figures. I’ve resorted to buying most figures off Amazon, and other online stores.

If Hasbro did care they would 1. Still be releasing at least a small, minimal amount of toys (empty pegs do not sell and do not make any money!). Cosmic Fury also had no figures and the amount of products you can count on one hand (Morpher, Megazord, lunchbox, mask/battle set…) 2. Still maintaining at least a minimal presence on social media (dead since October 2023). At least talk about this legacy of 30 years and not ignore it. 3. There would still be at least a Power Rangers TEAM working at Hasbro. Right now there is no one working on toys, not a single person is assigned to work on Power Rangers over at Hasbro. They are sitting on the brand, purposely letting it be inactive and letting it make no money. Does that sound like they “care” about the brand? Nope. In fact, there have been thousands of people laid off at Hasbro recently. They don’t just lack care for their brands, they don’t care about their own employees either, who have to be let go due no fault of their own and due to the poor decisions of corporate suits. Goldner clearly had a vision for this franchise before he passed away and now there is no one at the too that believes in Power Rangers the same way he did. So much for being “Fan First”. Hasbro has clearly proven to be Fan Last.

I honestly feel like Hasbro really couldn’t care less about the power rangers franchise because if they really did care about the franchise they would go out of their way to do anything for the franchise at least Bandai didn’t keep the fans waiting or put the legacy collection on hiatus unlike what Hasbro is doing with The Lightning collection and the franchise in general

You mean couldn’t care less. Could care less means they do care

[@Collectingmythoughts]

@@JVision1 I care enough to want to see the Franchise do better i’m not a fan of the current state that it’s in

[@JVision1]

@@Collectingmythoughts I meant you should’ve said you feel like Hasbro really couldn’t care less

I think it depends IMO.....if we talking about the corporates/CEOs at Hasbro? I think they only really care if PR just make money for them, its just another franchise they own. But if we go deeper down into those who work on the franchise, like the directors, producers, etc I would imagine they care for this franchise and the community. Aisha actress when she came back to O&A said in a interview, that when they came back to Hasbro, Hasbro treated them nicely.

Almost one year since the release of Cosmic Fury, short answer - no.
