>According to the New York Times, Hasbro made the takeover offer in recent months and while details about the offer are unknown as is whether or not Hasbro and Mattel have been in any further talks about the offer, a deal would combine the two largest U.S. toymakers in more than two decades.
>If a deal is approved, however, it would unite better known Hasbro properties, such as My Little Pony, Monopoly, and Nerf with Mattel's Barbie and Hot Wheels toys and could potentially open the door for more partnership opportunities with the entertainment industry.
>News of the takeover offer comes just a week after the announcement of Hasbro's partnership with Paramount Pictures to produce and distribute content based on the brand's properties with Hasbro's Allspark Pictures and Allspark Animation working with Paramount to develop new projects.
This could only be good news for the MLP brand, right? We shouldn't be worried, right?
