I thought TMAX was a toy manufacturer. Where did you get the info that they are making candy? I can't find any info to support this. OTTO

Hoffy, While TMAX will no doubt do well with Pokemon candy remember that they pay the license royalties to KIDE. The way I read this August 12th news release excerpt is that just about anything with the name Pokemon brings in revenue to KIDE. The Company has exclusive representation for Nintendo's Pokemon for merchandise licensing, movie and television distribution outside of Asia. The Company also has exclusive licensing rights outside Japan for the Nintendo 64 and Game Boy video game systems and their game characters,including Super Mario, Donkey Kong and Zelda. The Company also has exclusive merchandising rights for Comedy Central, The Sierra Club, Bela Karolyi and CBS' Martial Law. Ted
