NOTE A - CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 1998 and 1997
and the consolidated statements of operations for the three 
month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 and the consolidated
statements of cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998
and 1997 have been prepared by the Company without audit.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows at March 31, 1998 and 1997 have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated financial
statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1997.  Certain amounts in the financial statements of prior years have been
reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.


NOTE B - LOAN AGREEMENT

On April 1, 1993, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with
Congress Financial Corporation.  On March 31, 1995, this original agreement
was amended and restated in full including increasing the credit limit to
$40 million, with a provision to increase the limit to $60 million at the 
option of the Company.  On December 19, 1997, the loan agreement was amended,
increasing the credit limit to $75 million and extending the term of the loan
agreement until December 2000 . Borrowing availability is determined by a
formula based on both accounts receivable and inventories. The current interest
rate is equal to prime with a LIBOR option. The Company also agreed to pay an   
unused line fee of 0.25% and certain management fees.  In consideration of this 
amendment, the Company paid loan fees of $750,000.  The loan fee is included
in other assets and is being amortized straight-line over the term of the loan.

</TABLE>
Net revenues decreased 25% to $30.3 million in the first quarter of 1998 
as compared to $40.6 million in the first quarter of 1997.  Domestic 
sales decreased 35% to $20.5 million while international sales increased 
5% to $9.8 million.

The Company's worldwide sales of  boys' toys decreased 64% in the first 
quarter of 1998 as compared to the first quarter of 1997.  Sales for the first
quarter of 1997 were driven by the demand for Star Wars (TM) toys created 
by the theatrical release of the Star Wars Trilogy Special Edition in that
quarter.  The absence of a similar film event in the first quarter of 1998
led to comparatively lower worldwide sales of boys' toys.

The Company's worldwide sales of girls' toys increased 108% in the first 
quarter of 1998 as compared to the first quarter of 1997.  This increase 
was attributable to sales of the Company's Spice Girls (TM) and 
Anastasia (TM) product lines.

Gross margin decreased $4.1 million to $13.6 million in the first 
quarter of 1998 from $17.7 million in the first quarter of 1997.  The 
lower sales volume decreased gross margin by $4.5 million and an 
increase in the gross margin rate accounted for $0.4 million. The gross 
margin rate increased to 44.9% in the first quarter of 1998 as compared 
to 43.7% in the first quarter of 1997.  The increase in the gross margin 
rate was primarily attributable to a reduction of sales of discontinued 
products in the current year, which normally sell at little or no margin 
partially offset by higher tooling and packaging development costs and 
an increase in international sales as a percentage of worldwide sales.  
The Company's gross margin on international sales is significantly lower 
than domestic sales because the Company's prices on international sales 
are lower than the prices for identical items sold domestically.  This is 
because the Company's international customers are distributors who are 
responsible for selling to retailers. As such, the distributors incur the
costs of importing, selling to retailers, and promoting the products to the
consumer.  In contrast, these selling and promotion activities are undertaken 
by the Company domestically.

Advertising and promotion expenses were $4.4 million, or 14.7% of net 
revenues in the first quarter of 1998, as compared to $7.4 million, or 
18.2% of net revenues in the first quarter of 1997.  The decrease in  
advertising and promotion expenses was primarily attributable to a 
reduction in television advertising, trade show and product promotion 
expenses. 

Other selling and administrative expenses were $7.1 million in the 
first quarter of 1998 as compared to $8.0 million in the first quarter 
of 1997.  This decrease was primarily related to lower personnel costs 
as well as lower freight expenses due to the reduction in domestic sales. 

Royalties, research and development expenses were $5.8 million, or 19.1% 
of net revenues in the first quarter of 1998 as compared to $6.6 
million, or 16.2% of net revenues in the first quarter of 1997.   The 
increase in royalties, research and development expenses as a percentage 
of net revenues was primarily attributable to higher royalty expenses, 
partially offset by reductions in research and development spending.

Interest expense and other income in the first quarter of 1998 were 
relatively unchanged from the first quarter of 1997.

The income tax benefit in the first quarter of 1998 and 1997 reflects 
the quarterly application of the estimated annual rate based upon 
projected full year earnings.


Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this
Form 10-Q Report, including, without limitation the statements under 
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of 
Operations" are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements within the 
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Such forward
looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other
important factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements 
of results to differ materially from any future results, performance or 
achievements, expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.  Such 
risks, uncertainties and other important factors include among others: the
Company's dependence on timely development, introduction and customer acceptance
of continuing and new products (including those products to be developed under
the new Star Wars license); the continuing trend of increased concentration of
the Company's revenues in the second half of the fiscal year, together with
the increased reliance by retailers on quick response inventory management, 
which increases the risk of the Company's underproduction of popular items, 
overproduction of less popular items and failure to achieve tight and compressed
shipping schedules; possible weakness of the Company's markets; the impact
of competition on revenues, margin and pricing; the effect of currency
fluctuations; other risks and uncertainties as may be disclosed from time to
time in the Company's public announcements; the gross national product in the
United States and other countries, which also influences demand for the
Company's products; customer inventory levels; and the cost and availability of
raw materials and changes in trade conditions regarding China.  All subsequent
written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the Company or
persons acting on behalf of one or both of them are expressly qualified in
their entirety by such Cautionary Statements.


Liquidity, Financial Resources and Capital Expenditures

Demand for the Company's products is greatest in the third and fourth quarters
of the year.  As a result, collections of accounts typically peak in the fourth
quarter and early first quarter of the following year. Due to the seasonality
of its revenues and collections, the Company's working capital requirements
fluctuate significantly during the year.  The Company's seasonal financing
requirements are usually highest during the fourth quarter of each calendar
year.

On April 1, 1993, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with
Congress Financial Corporation.  On March 31, 1995, this original agreement
was amended and restated in full including increasing the credit limit to
$40 million, with a provision to increase the limit to $60 million at the 
option of the Company.  On December 19, 1997, the loan agreement was amended,
increasing the credit limit to $75 million and extending the term of the loan
agreement until December 2000 . Borrowing availability is determined by a
formula based on both accounts receivable and inventories. The current interest
rate is equal to prime with a LIBOR option. The Company also agreed to pay an   
unused line fee of 0.25% and certain management fees.  In consideration of this 
amendment, the Company paid loan fees of $750,000.  

During the first quarter of 1998, the Company generated $23.3 million of cash
from its operating activities. The net cash provided by operating activities
resulted primarily from collections of accounts receivable offset by the net 
loss, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets and decreases
in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Working capital was $80.2 million at March 31, 1998 as compared to $82.8
million at December 31, 1997 and $133.5 million  at March 31, 1997.  The 
ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 4.0 to 1.0 at March 31, 1998
as compared to 3.0 to 1.0 at December 31, 1997 and 6.0 to 1.0 at March 31, 1997.

The Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures at March 31,
1998.

On October 14, 1997, the Company entered into an exclusive, worldwide license
with Lucas Licensing Ltd. to make small-scale figures, vehicles, playsets and
accessories for the next three Star Wars movies, and the Company's current
rights to market such small-scale toys based on the original Star Wars trilogy
were also included.  The licensing agreement calls for minimum commitments,
primarily in the form of advance payments against future royalties, of $148.1
million payable throughout the release schedule of the three new films.  The 
first payment is due upon the theatrical release of the first film, which is
anticipated to be in May, 1999.

The Company expects that its cash flow from operations, cash on hand and
borrowings under the extended credit arrangement will be sufficient to meet its
working capital and capital expenditure requirements and provide the Company
with adequate liquidity to meet its anticipated operating needs for the
foreseeable future.

Part II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

Manufacturer Litigation

In January 1991, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Galco, 
filed a lawsuit in Hong Kong against Kader Industrial Co., Ltd. ("Kader"), 
alleging damages suffered by both Galco and the Company as a result of Kader's 
defective manufacturing of two lead doll items for the Company's Bouncin'
Babies toy line in 1990.  Kader filed counterclaims alleging breach of 17
individual contracts.  In August 1996, the trial court rendered a decision in
favor of Kader on the general issue of liability in this matter, including an
award of damages based on Kader's counterclaims which was approximately
$250,000, plus prejudgment interest.  In addition, the court awarded certain
litigation costs to Kader.  In March 1998, the Company settled all of the open
matters in this litigation.  The settlement will not result in any additional
material liabilities to the Company.

The Company is involved in various other litigation and legal matters which are
being defended and handled in the ordinary course of business.  None of these
matters is expected to result in outcomes having a material adverse effect
on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operation.
