I've been following that space a bit trying to wrap my head around it. I'm an old dog in the traditional financial services industry so I don't get.

I think Hasbro is trying to get in on the media hype around NFT's to seem cool & relevant.

Personally, I just want want them to make good Transformers figures at reasonable prices.

Its a push for companies to monetize digital information... Like Skins, cosmetics, Loot boxes and such, the wider market wants a piece of that action. Think of Blizzard making "mount skins" and selling them for 25 USD making millions per release, repeat 100 times. Hasbro wants in on that action through NFT's.
