That probably added a hundred mil or so to the pot.
They're like the Acclaim of movies. The content doesn't matter, just the name on the box. Regardless of how fans react, they still show up and throw their money down.
edit: Toy sales were down last year, but they still did $700 million in sales. $4 billion kinda seems like a deal.
