The butterflies lead up Hasbro buying PR are dead, with Marvel, Hasbro already have enough franchises to play with, so not need to buy PR unless Hasbro feel potential in the toys.

I think Hasbro will be interested in the toys and will approve Stan's pitch. i mean, if they eventually did in OTL, what's stopping them from doing it again ITTL several years early.

Well, the only difference would be that Hasbro will lay down the groundwork of making alt-PR an money-printing venture, instead of buying an established brand. So, if they did this right, all the profits that Saban got in the OTL 90s would fall on Hasbro.

Yeah still a good work to do, again they've an advantage, people already know Super Sentai and was popular outside USA(i'm not talking dynaman parody dub, we got full fledge, Flashman, Bioman and Liveman dubs here in latin america and in europe too) so could use as basis to see what to do.
