I think when a studio invests as much as they have in a household name product with mass appeal, they do this kind of marketing. I’m not saying this with any sources or anything to back up, but thinking of how Star Wars and other similar titles will market their brand on anything and everything (including literal tangerines with star wars branding), I think this is the norm for something of this caliber and potential.
