Apparently they are. There is some uncertainty about their right to do so. The few layers opinions I have read tend to say they probably don’t but it’s not entirely clear cut. Someone would have to go to court for it to be ascertained but I doubt anyone wants to fight Hasbro for some old content generating no revenue.

Not to mention that it is incredibly expensive in the U.S. to get a court case to a point where it creates binding precedent - and arguably there is no such thing in the modern political environment. So even if every single case is won or settled largely in favor of independent content creators, there will still be a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chilling_effect on the entire scene, especially on creators whose works would require essentially-from-scratch rewrites to use a different system.
