I always assumed actors trade any rights to their likenesses as Characters to the movie studios as part of their fees so the studios and producers can make money from merchandising.
The other question we don't know is whether Lanard got full rights to the franchise or rights to make specific toys or Characters. Bear in mind there are development costs for new figures, they already had a mould for the Rock, they may be testing how a new franchise would sell before committing more upfront costs for new figures.
Has any actor had action figures made in as many different franchises as the Rock? It's hard to think of anyone...

If Lanard made figures of the Rock for Rampage and Jumanji, that means they already made a deal with the actor/agent. That also give Lanard the possibility to make more figures from other movie licenses like for example Fast and the Furious or any other upcoming movie with the Rock on it... |

No, The studio and Lanarad work on a tie in for a specific project, such as Rampage, Kong, Jumanji, Alien Collection, Top Gun ETC. Each project is done differently, as some studios interact and lay down certain parameters, rights, and insight into what they want as part of that individual partnership, to represent their property. Other studios are very strict with how a property is handled. It's often rewarding, fun and challenging, with that same Excitement that goes into every project Lanard faces. |

Thanks for the explanation Justin case... I didn't took into consideration that a studio can carry several movies like you explained. |

I've said this many times over, grab these while you can, when they're gone, they're gone!
Jumanji is being phased out as Lanard has new products coming to walmart. GRAB THESE WHILE YOU CAN!
