Wait this didn't exist already? Most of those are both toys and media franchises
Most of the franchises that were supposed to make lots of money in the 2000's (D&D, GI: Joe, MLP) wound up fizzling in the latter half of the decade and into the 2010's (maybe MLP is the exception to this, but IIRC, Bronies being chuds put a huge dent in their sales)
The success of Honor Among Theives and Barbie showed there's still elements of the pop culture nostalgia market that can be mined for profit.
IKR they won't even give us Gremlins III, where they kill Hulk Hogan for real
