Hasbro and ASICS Team Up for New GI Joe Shoes at Foot Locker

Friday morning, Hasbro and ASCIS announced a new partnership.  I admit, I wasn’t surprised that a deal was made to create shoes and apparel featuring a Hasbro brand; that’s nothing new.  It’s a way to get a Hasbro property out into the world past the toy room or aisle.  I was extremely surprised when I heard that the property in question is GI Joe.

NYCC 2011: Hasbro Preview Night Thoughts
