One interesting note is that sources have told The Holo-Brick Archives that the contract has been renegotiated to include all Disney intellectual properties. These IPs include Star Wars, Frozen, Buzz Lightyear, Marvel, and The Muppets, just to nae a few. If you didn’t see it yet, The Muppets will be getting a CMF line that should be coming out soon.
