         Time Warner Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Time Warner"),
Warner Communications Inc., a Delaware corporation ("WCI") and
TWI Ventures Ltd., a Delaware corporation ("TWI Ltd."),
(collectively, the "Reporting Persons"), hereby amend and
supplement the Amended and Restated Statement on Schedule 13D,
relating to the Common Stock of Hasbro, Inc. dated June 22, 1994,
as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 24,
1994 by the Reporting Persons.  As provided in the Amended and
Restated Schedule 13D and a Joint Filing Agreement filed as an
Exhibit thereto (which Exhibit is incorporated herein by
reference), the Reporting Persons have agreed pursuant to Rule
13D-1(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, to file one
statement with respect to their ownership of Common Stock of the
Issuer.  The Amended and Restated Schedule 13D of the Reporting
Persons is hereinafter referred to as the "Statement."

         Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not
defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the
Statement.

Item 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

         The response to Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended
and supplemented by inserting the following paragraph as the
sixth paragraph:

         "On August 15, 1995, Time Warner Financing Trust (the
"Trust") sold through Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated
12,057,561 $1.24 Preferred Exchangeable Redemption Cumulative
Securities ("PERCS").  On December 23, 1997 (the "Mandatory
Redemption Date"), each of the outstanding PERCS will be redeemed
by the Trust in cash at a price per PERCS equal to the lesser of
(i) $54.41 and (ii) the average of the closing prices of one
share of Hasbro Common Stock for the five trading day period
ending on the trading day immediately preceding December 17,
1997, plus in each case, accrued and unpaid distributions to the
Mandatory Redemption Date.  Under the terms of the offering Time
Warner may elect to require the holders of the PERCS to exchange
their PERCS on the Mandatory Redemption Date (or any other
redemption date) for shares of Hasbro Common Stock in lieu of the
cash redemption price.  As a result of the issuance of the PERCS
and the existence of the LYONs described in the second preceding
paragraph, Time Warner intends to retain possession of its Hasbro
Common Stock until it delivers such stock to satisfy its
obligations in respect of either the PERCS or the LYONs."

Item 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Paragraphs eight through eleven of Item 5 of the Statement
are hereby amended with the following eight, ninth and tenth
paragraphs:

         "According to Hasbro's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 1995, there were outstanding as of
April 28, 1995, 87,717,715 shares of Hasbro Common Stock.  The
12,057,561 shares of Hasbro Common Stock held by TWI Ltd. and
beneficially owned by Time Warner and WCI constitute
approximately 13.7% of the outstanding Hasbro Common Stock."

         "Time Warner, WCI and TWI Ltd. have shared power to vote and
dispose of the 12,057,561 shares of Hasbro Common Stock
registered in the name of TWI Ltd. and owned beneficially by Time
Warner and WCI."

         "Except as described herein, neither Time Warner, WCI nor
TWI Ltd. is aware of any beneficial ownership of, or any
transaction within 60 days before the filing of this Statement
in, any shares of Hasbro Common Stock by Time Warner, WCI, TWI
Ltd. or any person listed in Annexes A, B or C hereto."<PAGE>
