You need to be a direct manufacturer to get any Disney License. You cannot be a middle man. You need to have at least 5 years of experience manufacturing the product you intend to license with Disney. Then you need a lot of money as you will have to pay a percentage of the royalties up front (this runs about 13% to 18% of your wholesale sales forecast for your first year).
Once you have the above covered, you then need to send in a proposal to Disney Consumer Products. Once they approve your item, you will work with them to approve your packaging and marketing plan.
