PDP created an Epic Mickey paintbrush add-on for the Wii nunchuck when the game launched a couple of years ago. It seems that the company is once again working on a few peripherals for the sequel.

First up is an updated version of the original paintbrush, which features an Epic Mickey 2 logo. The tip of the brush contains a lovely blue glow. PDP is also making a completely original nunchuck attachment based on Oswald’s remote control.

No word yet on when the accessories will be available and how much they’ll cost. They’re in the prototype stage at the moment.

Photos of the add-ons can be found in the gallery above.
