Well, the earnings and conference ARE on Tuesday...earnings out at 6am EST....Conference call starts at 11am EST...direct from IR Radica
Now this Sunday we have JCPenney advertising Monte Carlo NASCAR game in Sunday section...
We have May Co/Robinsons advertising ALL four Monte Carlo Nascar, Lunker, Trialburner and Golf...
Savon advertising hand held Casino Games
Report from one Atlanta Walmart is Lunker, Bass sold out at one store, and selling well from another...
Monopoly and Trivial Pursuit both OEM Radica...they have to be good profit games to make as they are much more complicated than the other games Hasbro has and should add to the revenue numbers...
And once again, we have MANY more outlets for the games, and products this year! Best Buy, Fedco, more models at last year's companies like May Co and JCPenney...and they are pushing them.
Let no one forget that DEERHUNTER is COMING next YEAR!!!
I just went to CompUSA and Best Buys and they have BIG diplays of this game...it is STILL hot...and the handheld one should follow that as I believe most people don't carry their PC with them!
And as one negative note, I am still disappointed at the total LACK of presence in SPORTING GOODS STORES!
Their HAS to be a push to get the Fishing lines, Trialburner and INLINE into stores that cater to the sports fans and have the exhibits in those areas of the stores that coincide with the sport...IF YOU CAN'T FISH....take RADICA WITH YOU...if you can't HUNT, TAKE DEERHUNTER WITH YOU...if you can't hit the TRAIL...TAKE TRAILBURNER with you etc
Tuesday should be good

Seeing that Mattel has recognized the need to get into more of an interactive/learning company this morning...doesn't this just show how ahead of the curve Radica is by buying GirlTech...this is a company with the likes of Janeene who can really shift them into another area with speed and imagination...
