Note that my post with Robin Hood was in direct response to what you said (which is quoted on the same post).Originally Posted by GoktimusPrime
What you basically said there is the reason why figures such as Robin Hood are admired. However there may not be a Robin Hood in this situation but Hasbro (along with several other US corporations) do behave like Prince John or the Sheiff of Naughtingham not through direct evil but outright amorality and selfishness.
What the Sheriff wanted was to fill up his coffers without any regard for how this action was affecting their peasant class. Hasbro is pretty much doing the same thing and I am pretty sure that their 'we'll investigate' is pure PR. Once this blows over it will be 'business as usual'.
