Buying and then shutting down a company the size of Mattel would be a very expensive to get ones hands on Mattel's IP.
Mattel shares are in the dumpster. The value of the company have dropped over 10 billion in 5 years. The organization is worth a fraction of the value of the IP. Whether it's Isaac Larian or a ventue capital company mathematically it's a simple decision.
Sell the IP get rid of an aged, incompetent and toxic organization ruled by ego and ineptitude.
