They didn't buy the IP for the chemistry for the original Polaroid film though, as Polaroid sold that to Fuji.

That's why there's only 8 instead of 10 photos in a pack, because their chemistry required thicker photos, and the photos take about 30 minutes to self-develop, rather than 30 seconds of original Polaroids or Fuji Instax.




That makes sense. Fujifilm was the other brand of instant camera+film that I saw when taking a quick look around.
