‘What’s the Deal with Micronauts?’
Do you know the Micronauts animated series developed by Eric Rogers together with Hasbro? The series was announced back in 2018, creating a lot of excitement among fans. But here’s what’s puzzling: even though the series is done and dusted, it’s still to see the light of day. That’s right! The series is nowhere in sight, and no one knows why.
‘Series All Set, But Where’s the Release?’
Picture this: You work on an exciting project, drenching your hard work, sweat, and love into it, then see it disappear into thin air. That’s precisely the feeling Eric Rogers, the main guy behind the Micronauts series, is dealing with. The show was good to go with 52 incredible episodes, all completed by 2020. But it’s as though Hasbro has forgotten all about it.
‘Frustration Pours Out on Twitter’
Baffled and frustrated, Rogers took to Twitter to share his confusion. He’s pretty much begging anyone from Hasbro to clue him in about what happened to the show. According to him, the reason behind the hold-up could be as common as a tax issue or as bizarre as the show getting ‘lost.’ Yes, you read that right. ‘Lost!’
‘Boulder Media and the Shifting Dynamics’
The plot thickens when you look at who was actually producing the Micronauts show. It was Boulder Media, a group under Hasbro Studios. Specifically, it was the Allspark Animation division of Hasbro that was working on the magic. However, some big shake-ups happened in 2020, and Entertainment One, another company, took over the reins. This switch in command may have something to do with our missing Micronauts saga.
‘The “Why” Behind the Silent Strategy?’
Many people are wondering why Hasbro is keeping the completed Micronauts series under wraps, especially during a time when people can’t get enough of streaming content. Was it their plan all along to never really release the show? Rogers himself talked about this in a roundabout way when he mentioned the canned Batgirl movie.
‘Micronauts: A Show in Limbo’
So, what’s next for the Micronauts series? Tough to say. It’s all ready to go, yet shows no signs of going anywhere. Fans and everyone else involved with the show, like Rogers, are waiting for some answers, some clues, something! For now, their patience is being tested till someone at Hasbro decides to shed some light on this puzzle. Yes, the fate of the Micronauts show is that big a mystery. Let’s hope for some updates soon!
In the meantime, stay tuned here for any more bits and pieces about the Micronauts drama we can dig up. You’ll be the first to know when we do!
