The Licensing Expo is going on, and movie, cartoon, comic and toy fans can expect a ton of posters and licensing tidbits to show up. Hasbro is at the show, and have an assortment of (mostly older) items on display. The display is mainly there to hype up the brands that will be part of the Hasbro Cinematic Universe. Brands include:
- M.A.S.K.
- Rom: The Space Knight
- Visionaries
- Micronauts
- G.I. Joe
The photos come via Collider. You can see a ton of new posters there as well. We’ve mirrored the Hasbro images. See them after the jump.

As far as Joe goes, there are a handful more I want to see in the current scale. I am starting to doubt I'll see those sans the club or as some sort of joecon exclusive. But I dont care to drop hundreds of dollars all at once on this hobby and just to end up with a whole bunch of stuff I don't want. So I suppose that ship has sailed.
Still looking forward to a six inch line of Joe. Still waiting to see if that goes through. If no go on that I really don't care about Hasbro's version of Joe. Can't get excited for it. At that point it's about Visionaries and hoping that one has a better run than Joe has.
Nice to see the G.I. Joe logo "front and center" so to speak.
Can't help but notice how much emptier the rom display case is compared to the others that the IDW comic a t shirt and a hat had to supplement the vintage toy. But the micronauts case is a nice encapsulation of coolness with the pharoid and robotman.
I imagine the gijoe logo being the old rise of cobra one is partially just that they either have not made the new logo, are'nt ready to release the new logo or just that's what will be most recognizable to licensors that worked with them during rise of cobra.
Nice to see some action being taken for these brands to see use again. Its way more reassuring than the hasbro investor releases that feel like its constantly being pushed back as long as transformers are profitable.
Ever since I was a kid and failed to jam my Joes onto a MASK vehicle I have had one dream....if this makes that happen they will have all of my money.
This next year will be VERY interesting...
