D. Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1:  The unaudited financial statements as of March 31, 1997 and 1996
- ------                                                                   
reflect all adjustments which are necessary in the opinion of management for a
fair presentation of the results for the periods stated. All adjustments so made
are of a normal recurring nature. Certain financial information and footnote
disclosure normally included in financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The
reader is referred to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1996.

Note 2:  On February 3, 1997, Steven Toy Inc., a newly formed subsidiary,
- ------                                                                   
acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Handi-Pac, Inc., d/b/a Steven
Manufacturing Co. (Handi-Pac).  Handi-Pac manufactures and sells several types
of toys, including pre-school, ride-on, classic and other educational toys. The
purchase price for all of the outstanding stock of Handi-Pac was $50,000 in cash
and the issuance of five year options to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company's
Class A common stock, at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. In addition, Hi-
Flier Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, paid $350,000 to a trust established
for the benefit of the seller to acquire all of its right, title and interest in
certain secured promissory notes made by Handi-Pac with a principal balance of
$350,000.

     The acquisition is being accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. The financial statements reflect the operations of Handi-Pac from
the date of acquisition. Refer to Form 8-K filed February 18, 1997 and 
Form 8-K/A filed April 18, 1997 for a further explanation of the acquisition.
 
Note 3:    Long-Term Debt
- -------    --------------

     Long-Term Debt represents obligations of the Handi-Pac subsidiary as
follows:

                                          March 31, 1997

     Notes Payable - SBA Loans             $   1,073,000
     Other Long-Term payables                    162,000
     Capital Lease payable                       871,000
                                           -------------
                                               2,106,000
     Current Portion of Long-Term Debt          (533,000)
                                           -------------
                                           $   1,573,000
                                           =============

     As of March 31, 1997, there was no other bank debt for the other
subsidiaries.

     Under the terms of a revolving credit agreement, as amended and extended to
December 31, 1996, a bank provided the Company with a line of credit and a
letter of credit facility for loans and/or letters of credit aggregating up to
$2,500,000 at a rate of 3/4% over prime.

     The former line of credit was collateralized by substantially all the
Company's trade accounts receivable, inventories and property and equipment, and
contained dividend and net worth restrictions.

     While the Company has not had any borrowings under the former credit
agreement for several years, and does not anticipate any borrowings in the
immediate future, it is currently negotiating a new agreement with the bank on
more favorable terms. It is expected the new agreement will be in place shortly.

the purchase acquisition of Handi-Pac was consummated at January 1, 1996 and
compares three month Pro Forma 1997 results with the comparable 1996 results.
The results are not necessarily indicative since the Registrant had no control
of Handi-Pac operations prior to the purchase.

ITEM 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
- -------   ---------------------------------------------------------------
          Results of Operations
          ---------------------

          A.   Results of Operations
               ---------------------

               Results for 1997 include the Handi-Pac operations acquired
February 3, 1997.

          Sales for the first quarter of 1997 were $6,131,000 compared to
$4,735,000 in 1996, a 29% increase. The Mechanical Equipment Group had total
sales of $2,399,000, which was 9% less than the prior year's $2,609,000. The Toy
Segment reflected a sales increase of 75% to $3,732,000 from $2,126,000 in 1996.

          First quarter 1997 Toy Segment sales reflect a small increase
without the inclusion of Handi-Pac. The acquisition presents a challenge to turn
that company around and benefit from the synergies within the Toy Group. The
industry continues to have a negative sales climate. The lack of any significant
new licenses within our segment of the toy business further hurts our sales.
Management continues its ongoing attempt to increase sales and improve the
bottom line.

          The first quarter sales of the Mechanical Equipment Group reflect an
overall decrease. Both segments of the group reported a small decrease in sales
and profits for the quarter. Management is hopeful that the introduction of
several new and/or enhanced products by our TX subsidiary will improve sales and
profits in the near to mid-term future.

          Operating losses were $335,000 compared to losses of $887,000 during
the first quarter of 1996. The reduction in the loss was due primarily to cost
reductions in the toy segment.

          Interest expense was $36,000, compared to $25,000 the same period last
year. There was no bank debt in the first quarter other than at the Handi-Pac
subsidiary.

          The net loss for the first quarter of 1996 was $190,000 or 7 cents
per share, compared to a net loss of $585,000 or 22 cents per share in the
comparable period of 1996.

               Please refer to Note 2 for a further explanation of the Handi-Pac
acquisition which occurred February 3, 1997.
