first we need to take a closer look at one of the many possible dealers... Walmart. Thanks to Sammy 1 it got me thinking more about this and possibly more accurate numbers. Lets stick to the pallets. 1 pallet is appx. 48" x 48" base, and for shipping purposes lets say 48" tall. I do not know the packaging size of the dolls but lets say they are 12" x 12", and 8" thick. That stacks 1 pallet like this... 16 pcs. per level at 6 levels totaling 96 dolls per pallet. Lets say they retail at $50.00 and Walmart buys them at $30 each. That leaves us at $2,880 per pallet.

Now lets take a look at Walmart. Based on data in April of 2010 here are the store types and numbers owned by Walmart...
Walmart discount store - 706
Walmart Supercenter - 2,913
Neighborhood Market by Walmart - 184
Sam's Club - 709
Walmart International - 4,263
Walmart Canada - 300
This totals to 9,075 stores.

For talking purposes Walmart will stock 4537 stores (50%) with the dolls @ 1 pallet per two stores (48 dolls per store). The initial sales for Super Rad would be $6,533,280 (2268.5 x 2,880). After the initial order Walmart cuts back by 50% and re-orders every month. Now the sales are at $42,466,320 per year. AND THIS IS JUST WALMART!!! Just some food for thought guys. GLTA...FBCD!!!
