Re: Hasbro To Generate NFTs Based On Transformers And G.I. Joe Properties

Hasbro will release 10 of these exclusive animated GIFs as an NFT and expect collectors to pay $250,000 for it, with some rocket ship emoji's. Seems like Hasbro might be late to the most recent NFT craze.

If anyone at Hasbro ever visits this Forum, we just want good toys for the good money we hand over.

I have read all this and stull don't k ow or care what an NFT is. I'm just about done supporting Hasbro until they fire all current managment and hire people who can, you know, run a business...not into the ground.

Re: Hasbro To Generate NFTs Based On Transformers And G.I. Joe Properties

I guess this is what happens when humanity gets too far away from our basic survival needs taken to the next level.

You can survive easily. Then you work on making yourself more comfortable, improving quality of life. Then you move to more abstract physical items that don't add comfort or survival. Now you collect digital ownership of something anyone else can have the same copy of...

100% this. They cut out the plastic window entirely and raise toy prices. Then they jump onto the NFT bandwagon to get in on the latest environmentally-destructive bubble.



Pure greed. Do not support this endeavor. It's the equivalent of the 1990s tech bubble. Let it crash and wipe out those fools dumb enough to dabble in it.

Wonder if all the Hasbro stans on this board are starting to see what the rest of us are... or maybe they still fan boying over the design teams Arcee design.

Hold on a sec, NFTs are just artwork and renderings under a unique computer code. I don't quite understand why people are thinking it harms the environment. Can someone please explain this to me?

Nevertheless, the whole concept of paying money for computer coded artwork seems kinda dumb to me.

Dumb idea is well... dumb.

But honestly, if anyone has the cash to blow on a blockchain piece of... whatever, then who am I to say no.
