Yes, yes. It's not patents that will be the issue for 3D replicas, but branding/trademark/licensing. I can make the Toy Story action figures for my kids, rather than pay Pixar for the rights. I can make Thomas the Train toys.
It's not that there's anything patentable in these items, but the licensing deals associated with things like TV shows and movies takes a serious hit.
