Only tangentially Transformers-related, and you'll see why below, we have some new videos directly from Hasbro YouTube showcasing some of their employees and their interests, in a new series called Hasbro Stories (or #hasbrostories, for the social mediaites out there). The most relevant to us is Carlos, who talks about his involvement with robots, fiddles with a Fall of Cybertron Bumblebee, Rescue Bots and Age of Extinction toys, and has plenty of Robots in Disguise and movieverse footage to accompany his clip. Check his story, and the others, out below!

Hasbro Stories is a project that shares personal stories about connections to Hasbro and our brands; Hasbro and its affiliated companies do not accept unsolicited product or entertainment ideas.

NEW 'HASBRO STORIES' CAMPAIGN CELEBRATES PERSONAL CONNECTIONS TO HASBRO'S ICONIC BRANDS

PAWTUCKET, R.I. -- Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS) today launched a new integrated marketing campaign celebrating 'Hasbro Stories' and the meaningful connection consumers around the world feel toward Hasbro and its brands. Hasbro is home to many of the world's most iconic brands, including NERF, MY LITTLE PONY, TRANSFORMERS, PLAY-DOH, MONOPOLY, LITTLEST PET SHOP and MAGIC: THE GATHERING, as well as

hundreds of the most popular gaming brands of all time. Because of the emotional resonance of its brands, and the many ways consumers can now experience its brands, the company is confident that everyone has a 'Hasbro Story.' The campaign kicked off in December with a series of four video vignettes featuring Hasbro employees sharing their unscripted, personal experiences with Hasbro brands.

"Stories are at the center of what we do every day, so we couldn't think of a better way to start the conversation about Hasbro than with our employees, who live and love our brands and bring our purpose - to make the world a better place for children and their families - to life every day," said Brian Goldner, Chairman and CEO, Hasbro. "We have transformed from a traditional toy and game manufacturer to a global play and entertainment leader, and feel that now is the perfect time to tell our story in a unique way to celebrate the passion, nostalgia and excitement people feel for our brands."

In 2017, the company plans to invite consumers, fans and partners from around the world to share their stories, and incorporate the campaign into its signature events, such as HASCON in September.

"Everyone feels connected to Hasbro brands for a different reason," said John Frascotti, Hasbro's President. "For some, it's about playing MONOPOLY as a child, and for others, it's the adventures of the MY LITTLE PONY characters or sense of community around MAGIC: THE GATHERING. With this campaign, we're celebrating these connections - all of which are unique - all of which have their own story."

Several months ago, Hasbro sent out a press release highlighting their new campaign to connect faces and names to the gigantic toymaker company, called Hasbro Stories. As a series of short clips on YouTube, they spotlighted employees and departments that sparked the interest of potential viewers, from personal hobbies to connections to the brands they work on, giving a human face to the usually corporate reality for a wider audience.

Well, they're back! We have a whole list of clips for you to enjoy, spanning from My Little Pony to Consumer Care, to Baby Alive and Global Philantropy - and of course, Transformers. Two clips in particular are included below, focusing on Corey and Thor & Amanda. Corey is the eye behind the lens that has taken pretty much all the stock photography images of the figures we know and love (and many other Hasbro products); couple Thor and Amanda met through Transformers, and share an interest with each other, and about each other, and can be seen in a number of images with the franchise and the brand team for our robotic plastic friends. Check out the clips below!

Not really a Hasbro Story clip, but a clip (from last October, but making the rounds again) about a story that ends up at Hasbro centering on Transformers - collector and reviewer 刘哥模玩 (Liu-Ge toys), as subtitled by Wayne Winged Angel.
