Mattel lost the Disney Princess license to Hasbro, Disney aren't keeping it in-house. It doesn't make much sense for Disney to want in-house toy manufacturing either since it's easier and cheaper to just license them out and get royalties without the risks and up front expenses. I don't think it makes much sense for them to lose all the institutional experience at Hasbro when it comes to making Star Wars and Marvel figures just to shift back to Mattel which lost Disney Princesses because of their own poor practices in the first place.

Obviously I have no idea what is going on behind the scenes but I would be extremely surprised if Disney and Hasbro don't renew their licensing agreements.

The bare headed Ghost head is a little weird looking, but the official photos always make the photoreal heads look odd.
