Hasbro Tells DHS That Unauthorized Optimus Prime Posts Were Used Without Permission
Hasbro posted on Instagram that Optimus Prime images were shared without permission and do not represent the Transformers brand or Hasbro. The company did not mention DHS by name, but the agency posted at least two images this week, including an AI-generated one reading “Self-deport” and “America for Americans.” Hasbro replied within a day, while DC and Warner Bros. Discovery made no public response.
