Just last month, one of those Fools, stockdissector, succinctly summed up the Hasbro bull case for our community:
Hasbro plans to utilize its "brand blueprint" to focus on a few core brands such as Transformers, G.I. Joe, My Little Pony, Play-Doh, and Magic: The Gathering. Hasbro dividend to free cash flow stands at 53% and yields 4%. The next Transformers movie in 2014 will give this company a rejuvenated boost.
