Hasbro Role Play Toys for Halloween

Equip Your Kids For Halloween - and Beyond - with Hasbro Role-Play Toys

Hasbro's Masks and Accessories From This Year's Hottest Marvel Super Hero Movies Will Last Way Longer Than The Halloween Candy

PAWTUCKET, R.I., Oct. 17, 2012 -- Hasbro, Inc. offers parents a great way to make their dollars go further this Halloween season. With Hasbro's wide range of fun, high quality and modestly priced role-play masks and accessories from this year's hottest movies like MARVEL'S THE AVENGERS and THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, kids can pretend to be their favorite Marvel Super Hero on Halloween - and keep playing for months afterward.

Hasbro's role-play toys are affordable and will keep kids entertained long after the Halloween sugar rush is over. Several of the masks and accessories also feature electronic sound effects and voices and even firing projectiles, to turn the elements of a Halloween costume into a year-round play experience. With role-play toys ranging from masks, chest lights, gloves, helmets and more, the Hasbro line of Marvel toys help parents and kids accessorize the ultimate costume based on popular Super Heroes like IRON MAN, HULK, THOR or CAPTAIN AMERICA from MARVEL'S THE AVENGERS or SPIDER-MAN and THE LIZARD from THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN.

"Halloween is one of the favorite times of year for a kid, but for parents the idea of spending a lot of money on a costume that gets worn once can be discouraging," said Jeff Jackson, vice president, Hasbro, Inc. "But Hasbro's role-play masks and accessories are great for year-round play and for adding to Halloween dress-up, offering tremendous value for parents and a great play experience for kids. Items like the HULK GAMMA GREEN SMASH FISTS and the AMAZING SPIDER-MAN HERO FX MASK will find great use on Halloween, and into next year and beyond - as long as kids want to pretend to be their favorite Marvel Super Heroes."
