Nah, they want to diversify to family oriented, and hasbrocon starts making it sound too much like Bro-con, which is too heavy negative connotation. Also alludes too much to bronies, and has an overall lackluster word appeal with limited marketing and too easy for trolls to twist. Plus it sounds like you're saying Hasbro is conning/scamming you.

Hascon is a better wordplay for Hasbro Convention in combining the two words, and has a better marketing for memes with "I can has con." Like the Has cheeseburgers ones from before, or many others.

From a marketing perspective and more inclusive atmosphere they want of the convention with family oriented draws, "HasCon" is the better title to go with.
