Although it hasn't received a major featured film since Monsters University in 2013, the Monsters Inc franchise remains one of the most popular IPs under the Pixar umbrella, and there have been plenty of popular cultural developments with the franchise since its inception in 2001. One of the latest is a new Monsters University licensed accessory collection, made available via Loungefly, and The Best War Games can exclusively reveal two new items for this collection, as well as the release date for it as a whole.

Over the past few years, Loungefly has increasingly established itself as a household name for collectible fashion accessories. It has released licensed accessories associated with major Disney properties, Marvel, Star Wars, Pokemon, Hello Kitty, and much, much more—and its Monsters University collection will become available on January 9, 2023.

In addition to the previously announced Loungefly Pixar Monsters University Scare Games Mini Backpack and Zip Around Wallet, The Best War Games can confirm two brand new items for this collection: the Loungefly Pixar Monsters University Unisex Hoodie and a Scare Games 3 Inch Collector Box Pin. All items, including these new ones, can be found on Loungefly.com with a "Notify Me" option, which will alert fans as to when this goes up for pre-order and purchase. Fans will want to mark January 9, 2023, specifically at 9 am PT and 12 pm ET, on their calendars as when these items go live.
