As Hasbro nears its 100th anniversary the company has built an impressive portfolio of intellectual property over the past century.
“Licensing gives Hasbro another option to reignite and re-envision classic brands and toys for today’s consumer,” says Jess Richardson, Vice President, Global Licensed Toys and Games. “I’m excited to find ways of making what’s old, new again and capitalizing on the name value and play patterns that are part of the Hasbro Vault.”
In 2022 and 2023 some of Hasbro’s biggest brands celebrate some key milestones. TONKA and SUBBUTEO both celebrate 75 years in 2022. While Tonka is most known for classic steel vehicles, Hasbro is extending the brand into new toy adjacencies such as role play and construction products.
With SUBBUTEO University Games will be launching a special anniversary edition game next year and looking at opportunities to support the FIFA World Cup in Quatar.
