Nope, no 'smoke and mirrors' involved -they're worth $8M more.

You're mixing up my points. You're answering my response to your first part as if I were responding to your second part.

Still, how good a sign can it be when receipts from sales of options dwarf profits from sales of actual product?

One more try at clearing this up: what is the TOTAL inflow GRIN can receive from the options in question, $11 million or $19 million? If the former, then $8 million has already been accounted from in the latest 10-Q and there is no way for them to receive an additional $8M-$11M because there simply isn't enough left. If the latter, then I'd suggest you should have said as much to avoid this confusion.

The Furby bit was just a bit of wondering over why the stock seems to be living and dying with Pokemon these days and totally ignoring Furby. I find that strange, given that the Furby license is supposed to be an order of magnitude board than the Pokemon license, which is limited to rather minor items.
