We tend to forget that Hasbro is a company who's primary raison d'etre is producing stuff for kids that makes a shit-ton of money. Since kids are getting out of toys and "childish things" at earlier and earlier ages nowadays, the real dollars are in the preschool/way young kiddo market. Sign o' the times.

Hasbro said the deal would expand its entertainment and "family-oriented storytelling" portfolio.
The American toy giant is behind a diverse range of titles including the My Little Pony and Transformers franchises, as well as the Monopoly board game and Play-Doh. ^^^^^ Notice "family oriented story telling" in the article. Then they don't even list Gi Joe as part of their portfolio. Maybe they don't feel GI Joe is family friendly.

Happy for Peppa's former owners, sad because Hasbro will probably ruin it. Though by that time my kids will no longer be interested in it, so whatever.

I have no idea how it became big. You would think with $4bn to spend they could throw us a bone and release a small line to hold us over.
