True. And if it's not a huge bother, I think Toei should consider public auctions after a show or movie ends if they have no intentions of keeping it for a while. Not just because it's a nice way to make extra cash, but fans will likely take good care of such things and Toei ends up with less baggage, so everybody wins.

But will a typical museum buy 30 years worth of Power Rangers memoribilia though is I think what we should be asking. Even if they open a pop culture section for good, there's no guarantee that they would buy every item.
I agree the stuff that we're talking about should be preserved given the franchise's status in pop culture. But at the same time, I don't know if 30 years worth of memoribilia will be sold right away to a museum and if the investment will garner as much people in the long run, and Hasbro probably needs to get rid of the props by a certain deadline to move on with their business.
