Milton Bradley Company
Encyclopedia : M : MI : MIL : Milton Bradley Company
Milton Bradley was taken over by Hasbro, Inc. in 1984. Now wholly owned by Hasbro, it is still retained as one of Hasbro's brands, similar to the manner in which Parker Brothers is one of Hasbro's brands. It is a board game and sometimes video game publisher. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, Milton Bradley marketed a series of games in North America that were developed in the United Kingdom by Games Workshop that drew heavily from GW's Warhammer Fantasy universe, albeit without explicit reference to the Warhammer product line.
