Honestly, I can't get too upset about this particular gaffe. Because,
let's be honest: the old-school art often was quite cringe... even
back in the 80s. The chainmail bikini had a bad reputation long before right-wingers started flinging 'woke' accusations at everything. And
Hasbro has a corporate image they like to present as being
family-friendly, and that image doesn't really fit with that
presentation.

All the moreso since it seems it's just the ONE image that seems to
have been edited. If there had been more examples of this happening,
I'm pretty sure the youtuber would have mentioned.

There's a lot I dislike about Hasbro and their handling of D&D, but
this isn't a hill worth fighting for, at least not as far as I'm
concerned.

Exactly! This is just fixing something that should have been
fixed a long time ago. There are much worse Hasbro disasters to
discuss.
