This prompts an interesting question - who is Hasbro's current AoR? (that's Agency of Record, in ad-speak) I'm vaguely curious. Hooper_X 12:31, 5 June 2009 (EDT)

Everything I can find on Google points to a company called Uproar, which is part of Omnicom. Most of that stuff was from 2007, around the release of the first movie though. -Mazenoise 12:42, 5 June 2009 (EDT)

These days Hasbro employ the services of Hunter PR (who handle the Hasbro Q&A, among other things).--Nevermore 12:55, 5 June 2009 (EDT)

Probably ought to be pages on these groups - note that a company can have a PR firm AND an advertising agency, as they're two different things. It looks like Hunter does some marketing stuff, but they don't seem to direct the creation of actual advertising media (i.e. the commercials themselves). Hasbro probably has a different agency who handles the media aspects (both design-wise and buying-wise). This might be Uproar/Omnicom, but I can't say for sure. Hooper_X 13:57, 5 June 2009 (EDT)

ETA: Uproar is a subsidiary of TracyLocke, which is itself a subsidiary of DDB - I'd imagine that somewhere in that maze of names is the advertising wing, unless Hasbro does all its print/tv/etc. in-house, which is fairly unlikely.
