Kevin, [with tongue in cheek] "Git yer face outta dat screen and run down ta the Wal or the K and see fer yerself." Every Star Wars display of merchandise I have seen was FULL of merchandise. . . NO BUYERS. Yes, Taco Bell deal is huge [though doesn't benefit HAS] as are other Star Wars promos. . .but I was not impressed by what I saw in Toy stores so far. .. perhaps as the summer goes on and more kids see the movie things will change.. . . but we need to keep a close eye on the store displays. . . perhaps even moreso than the charts on HAS and especially more than HAS official revenue estimates. I was starting to picture in my mind 75 percent off sales on "everything Star Wars" by January. . .perhaps even as soon as September. Rande Is
