Bill- I'm not so sure Star Wars and NFL games are as great as they sound.

NFL-- would be OEM work for Hasbro who has to pay for the license. I think the margins would be very low.

Star Wars-- is the same thing. I think that Galoob has found out what doing business with Lucas is like. After you pay for the rights for the Star Wars name there isn't much left for profit. Worse yet it would be OEM work for Hasbro. A double whammy!

IMO, Radica does better making a name for itself with it's own AWSOME products where they determine the margins. Use the OEM work to fill in production gaps. I think they touched on that in the CC.

This team is smart! I don't think it's any coincidence they do not seem to be pushing this angle. They know where the money is. I'm guessing the comments made by Mr. Freely were more geared toward keeping their door open.

Just an opinion, I could be wrong. Gary, Wayne, or David could probably elaborate much better.

Regards,
Anthony
