What happened to the Dreamworks All Star minis?

Great things come in mysterious miniature or pint sized packages, but which great thing will it be? It's all a mystery until you open one. Then the fun begins.

What happened to the Dreamworks All Star minis?

We were supposed to get those in 2014 or 2015, and we never did. I assume they got cancelled, but why?

My guess is that talks stalled between Funko and Dreamworks at some point, NBC/Universal buying out Dreamworks back in April probably didn't help the line either.

They were able to make Shrek Pops earlier this year, so if I had to guess I'd say there was a licensing issue with one of the other Dreamworks properties that caused these guys to get cancelled.

There was never any concept art or glams.

Brian announced it during the 12 Days event in December 2013 (I think?), and then static.

I'm still upset we never got these. I would have loved some Kung Fu Panda minis!

that would have been an awesome line to see. I wonder if anyone has any old snaps of the catalog or if it was just mentioned in text.
