Think about this...when nothing is a done deal you can't claim or say "for certain." Under promise & Over deliver

Name one company that publishes units sold to specific retailers? Just one. It doesn't happen because if companies that stores like Walmart just let every vendor they do business with publish details about their deals --- well that would be just kind of dumb.

As far as the Magazines. Anyone who knows anything about media is that until it airs or prints --- it hasn't aired or printed. Shows and stories get preempted all the time and I actually appreciate his being transparent and saying that as opposed to leaving things open for conjecture. Funny how people hear what they want to hear.

And now to the silliest thing that was said...

If OWOO is not willing or able to put up the money to go through Walmart's hoops and ladders, then they might not be in the brick and mortar stores by this holiday season.



Any 3rd grader knows that a PO from Walmart is a guarantee finance deal so them not being "willing or able" to jump through the hoops is a foolish notion.

You must not have listened to Trey actually say that they have gone through the hoops.

Like I said. Selective hearing....

(Think about it like this: At the beginning they say how difficult and strict and expensive it is to get a toy up to the standards that Walmart has. It has to go through so many tests for quality assurance. If OWOO is not willing or able to put up the money to go through Walmart's hoops and ladders, then they might not be in the brick and mortar stores by this holiday season.

Why else would they be so adamant about stressing how they will not discuss the Walmart brick & mortar deal?They said even if Walmart let them talk about it, they still wouldn't. They have no problem announcing Parents and O Magazine even though those two are not definite deals.)


Did you not pay attention to the CC? They stated that they've already passed the WM test with flying colors. They have two factories producing products and one is strictly dedicated to Walmart fulfillment. Both production facilities have already been inspected by WM and now they've proceeded with a large PO. They also stated that if they're allowed to state numbers in regards to the deal then it will be in the Quartely. The Trial Period is OVER.............THEY PASSED........PO's are now starting.

As for print, nothing is final until it's pressed. If there's a nuclear war, guess what, probably not going to be running a doll story for the holidays. You guys love to try and down play good momentum. These guys are real, products are real and the deals are getting done.

After about 10 minutes into the CC I getting worried. After 20 minutes all I heard was platitudes and primo donna type stuff. I then turned it off and started making efforts to sell which I did. It may go back up after a while but not because of the letter "O"
