"It is everything Power Rangers, in partnership with Hasbro who owns the property now and they have a relationship, obviously, with the Japanese group [Toei]. So we can do anything. If it comes to new entertainment, the circle gets broader in terms of who we talk to."

Trojan continues, "In terms of product, we can do any version of Power Rangers, subject to approval, so it is across the whole brand."

We then asked regarding partnerships for new entertainment, does Playmates Toys have the opportunity to take the lead on that? Trojan responds, "Yes, we could take the lead on that with everyone else involved. We've talked about it. We'll talk about it some point in the future."

He continues, "We're constantly talking about it. This is where we're starting to judge our success, but yeah, we would be the ones involved in that with Hasbro" subject to their current multi-year agreement. "We just don't have any announcements on that front yet."

Lastly, we asked what Playmates Toys expects to do differently with the toy line from previous years. Trojan chuckles to say, "'Previously' covers a lot of years!"
