    Hasbro wouldn't need to trade ANYTHING for Rom...they already have the Marvel license!

    Let Marvel bring back Rom and push it hard (I'd LOVE a cartoon)

    Then lat HASBRO add Rom to the Marvel figures line, there is no NEED to trade and I'd much rather see a Marvel Universe Rom than Bot Shot or 'random repaint Rom' any day.

    Even as a child of the 80's, ROM is pretty darn hideous. The late 90's reboot of SpaceKnights was much more aesthetically pleasing.

    Still, Marvel eventually got the rights to Marv-uh, Miracle Man, so nothing's impossible.

    Looks like you conveniently ignored the Micronauts example. Way to go, you. So you can continue your histrionics in defending your awful reimagining idea.

    You got that backwards. Parker Brothers bought the concept from 3 guys and contracted Marvel top make a comic series. Thus Hasbro owns Rom. And Marvel can't even show Rom in his armoured form anymore.

    Disney owns Marvel. When they eventually buy Hasbro, we won't need to have these arguments anymore.

    And you can continue to ignore real facts and then proceed to bitch, whine and moan like a good little nostalgia fueled manchild when the reimagining does happen and it's not exactly like what you want.
