That's always been something I wondered about, why doesn't Disney make more toys/action figures? You'd think fans would love to have their very own set of Lab Rats or Mighty Med toys. If they went all out, they could even have playsets like Davenport's mission control/basement lab, Krane's evil lair etc. Flying Davenport jetwing toy, comes with Donald screaming in terror.

Or any kind of merchandise really. I think is that Disney is a corporation that is very much in the now, they don't like to look back or have their consumerbase do the same. If they make merchandise for a show or movie they don't especially favor, it keeps whatever they are trying to forget out in the public memory. So in franchises (especially Disney shows, which have a limited production number), perhaps they intend not to make merchandise because they already know in advance it's not a long term investment.

While I don't know where they got the Bionic Academy shirts, to me, it looks like they just ordered a bunch of lycra swimshirts from a manufacturer who makes them in bulk in three different colors. Which would make sense, considering how many extras wear the shirt and all the different sizes required. The costume department just wouldn't have the time to make each one separately. If that assumption is true, let us try to find out which company that is so we can have some! ;-D
