    If there’s money in it then they’ll get remade....all of them.

    That said - licensing factors into the “money in it” equation. There is money and risk to lay out to remake any pin, but if you have to pay licensing fees to someone else on top of that cuts into the profit equation. That is of course if the license holder even wants to do a deal.

    Who knows what that means for something like IJ. IJ was Fox wasn’t it....which is now Disney?

    Long and short - unlicensed pins don’t have the delicensing complexity

    So TOTAN is unlicensed while both TZ and IJ are.

    Lots of pins out there to buy. Buy the fun ones YOU enjoy playing and don’t over analyze. There are better investments to be made if you actually looking to make money.

    I’m no expert but I think Chicago would work on unlicensed and work their way down the list.
