We've got a fantastic Power Rangers community over at the Power Rangers ComicBook page, so here are a few of their early thoughts!
And yes, plenty of people would buy another Power Rangers Monopoly.

To Fair is right around the corner, and a few fans are still going to be processing the breakup of Power Rangers and Bandai.
"I don't know that I need an hour or two of sobbing over Bandai and Power Rangers breaking up.
I know, theirs was supposed to be a forever love, but they still both love you, honest!"

Some believe this is the just the first of several big changes, including the Power Rangers film and home video divisions.
"Saban will announce new partners for movies and home video soon... I'm sure. #PowerRangers"
@Trevorstanisz
Speaking of the future, others are curious how the new deal effects the regular and super season format of future shows.
"@PowerRangers so since the deal extends to 2021 and thats 3 years of power rangers, does that mean we are getting no more super seasons?"
@DaChangeling
Others can't believe that Power Rangers is among other toy giants like Star Wars and Transformers.
"Wait wha? Power Rangers in the same family as #Marvel, #StarWars, #Transformers, #GIJoe and #MyLittlePony?"
@HonneyOTU
Sometimes an image speaks louder than words, and this is definitely one of those scenarios. Looks like Power Rangers has a new best friend.

There are plenty of fans who are excited by the news and look forward to some upgraded toys in the Hasbro style.
"We talked about this last night while recording and I'm pretty thrilled that @HasbroNews now has the toy rights to @PowerRangers. Here's hoping for more Legacy zords and figures. And higher quality zords from current seasons! #powerrangers #hasbro #actionfigures #podcast"

Saban Brands also released a new logo for the franchise, and some are coming around to it. Still, it will be weird not to have Bandai producing the toys anymore.
"I'm hoping this new logo will grow on me, but Bandi not making Power Rangers toys will be weird, considering Bandai will still be producing Super Sentai toys..."
@DeadlyRave
The official announcement is leading some to believe that Hasbro could be the future home of the entire franchise, and some definitely see a pattern.
"Guess it's Power Rangers tradition to get sold every 10 years, 2021 seems about right if they really do get sold wholesale to Hasbro."
