    Hi @Jan21

    Disney are well known for taking legal action against anyone using their products/images etc without their permission, so make sure you contact them for permission/licences.

    Don;t do anything without their permission or expect a hefty legal bill!

    Hi @Jan21 and welcome to UKBF. As the others have already suggested, without permission from Disney this idea isn’t going to be viable. Even with permission expect to pay a decent wodge for the license. I know one company was paying over £1000 per character per year.

    Ouch. I knew they were killers, but it nice to see an approximate figure on the amount they charge. Thanks for sharing.
    Each license is different. As far as I recall, this company was going to use them on pens and pencils - the rubbery thing you stick on the end. The cost was related to number of items - I think the MOQ was 500K for each item which meant pennies for each pencil. This was a long time ago so my memory is a bit hazy.

    Hasbro has paid hundreds of millions for their Star Wars licenses over the years
