Now here's my question: Did Hasbro get the Kamen Rider trademark as well?

I'm going to say no. I don't think Saban even has the Kamen Rider license anymore and even if they did it was probably just for Black RX. I don't think their deal with Toei for Kamen Rider was as comprehensive as the one for Sentai.

And this means nothing else will come of it. Lol. Because I think they bought it simply because of Amazons.

Exactly, yeah. Maybe they'd put up official subs of the main series...but that's definitely fantasy territory. They'd certainly never adapt a series.

Why are we cheering for corporate consolidation?

But currently there are no plans about that. This only pertains to the rights Neo-Saban/Saban Brands held. Which this time around does not include Masked Rider(Black RX), Gridman, VR Troopers, or Beetleborgs. Those are still in limbo/no clue who currently owns them. It also depends on what the current Toei/Amazon plans are, and how that may grow depending on how much audience it can bring in to the amazon platforms to feel warranted or additionally marketed. Cause Hasbro makes good toys, good shows, and has retail presence whereas no-name or low name companies don't. Not every "big corporate purchase" is a bad thing or means a monopoly with no competition/increased prices. Like the freedom Marvel gained because of the Disney purchase that let them not be stuck within other studios that could have led to a mess or limiting their freedom by how those studios could interfere. Things like Black Panther, Cloak and Dagger, and the Netflix series wouldn't have been the same otherwise or even happened at all. Hasbro buying PR, and having such friendly relations with Paramount and Lionsgate is very beneficial to the brand as a whole. As is their closeness to Marvel/Disney. So because of this, we could see some interesting material and stronger investments happen. Better toys, and also having wider outlets, and also wider rights to intermingle them with like Rom, Micronauts, or Visionaries. Hasbro also currently has more in-house development outlets for entertainment licenses too, and is broadening their reach with video game companies. All extremely promising things for PR to have access to long term as it means wider inclusion in material and more diverse material to be made. Last edited by Librarian; 06-12-2018 at 11:19 PM.. |

Look for all I know this could usher in a new golden age for Power Rangers, and that would be awesome. That said I still feel like I need to be a little critical, that is just the type of fan I am. If you aren't then that is fine, I have no right to dictate that. Last edited by BlueSaint; 06-12-2018 at 11:45 PM.. |

But by the same token Fox holding the X-Men rights gave us the Deadpool movies. Those movies were created to compete with the Marvel Studios/Disney and DC/Warner Bros. offerings. If the Disney/Fox deal goes through the chances of anything that experimental being allowed shrinks, since it would be off-brand. We have already seen that with Edgar Wright's Ant-Man.
