We worked closely with our creative teams to make sure every detail celebrates the spirit of these iconic moments,” said Nick Karamanos, senior vice president, Mattel Creations & Entertainment Partnerships at Mattel. “It is magical to watch our fans connect with the stories they grew up with and we're proud to bring that magic to life through our collectibles.”
