    According to Wikipedia Hasbro owns MB (acquired in 1984). Why would Hasbo need to put the MB logo on Transformers instead of their own logo?

    They didnt acquire MB fully until mid to late 1985 in mainland Europe. They were using MB boxes because up until that time, the toys were being produced in MB factories
