second store opened in September in  Grapevine,  Texas near Dallas.  Both stores
are located in high traffic shopping malls. The capital  investment for building
each of those stores was approximately $300,000.

     In early  November  1998,  Play Co.  opened  new stores in  Thousand  Oaks,
California  near Los Angeles and in Auburn Hills,  Michigan near Detroit.  These
stores  are also  located  in high  traffic  shopping  malls.  These two  stores
represented an aggregate capital  investment of approximately  $613,000,  net of
landlord tenant improvement ("Landlord TI") contributions.

     On November 19 and 20, 1998, Play Co. opened two additional  stores, one in
Orange County  California  and one in Gurnee,  Illinois  (near  Chicago).  These
stores represent the final two of the six stores Play Co. planned to open during
calendar year 1998. These two stores represented an aggregate capital investment
of approximately $500,000, net of Landlord TI contributions. Play Co. now has 25
stores located in six states.

     Play Co. had  planned  to  finance  the  costs,  now  estimated  to be $1.7
million, net of Landlord TI contributions,  of building the new stores described
above  through a  combination  of  capital  lease  financing,  use of Play Co.?s
working  capital,  and the sale of  additional  equity.  Play Co.  has  obtained
approximately  $260,000 in lease  financing on the equipment and fixtures of the
Nevada and Century City stores. Play Co. is also in the documentation phase of a
five year term loan in the principal amount of approximately $500,000 with a new
lender.  That term loan will be secured by the equipment and fixed assets of the
new Texas store and three existing stores.

     Play  Co.  continues  to  seek  additional  lease  financing  based  on the
equipment  and fixtures of its new stores in  California  (two),  Michigan,  and
Illinois.  There  can be no  assurance  that  Play  Co.  will be able to  obtain
sufficient  financing  to offset  the new  store  opening  costs  that have been
incurred.

     On September  18, 1998,  Play Co.  borrowed  $1,000,000  from Amir Overseas
Capital Corp.  ("Amir") under a Secured  Subordinated  Promissory Note. The Note
bears interest at 12% and calls for three  installment  payments ending December
23, 1998. On November 9, 1998,  Play Co.  borrowed an  additional  $250,000 from
Amir  under a  Promissory  Note.  The Note bears  interest  at 12% and calls for
repayment on January 29, 1998.

     In September  1998,  Play Co. and FINOVA  Capital  Corporation,  Play Co.?s
working  capital  lender,  amended  Play Co.?s Loan and  Security  Agreement  to
increase the maximum  level of  borrowings  under same from $7.6 million to $8.6
million  through  December 31, 1998.  Beginning on January 1, 1999,  the maximum
level of borrowings  will return to the $7.6 million level.  Play Co. expects to
utilize this  additional  amount on its credit line to partially  finance either
its  working  capital,   particularly   inventory  purchases,   or  the  capital
expenditures noted above.

                  Year 2000

     Earlier  in  1998,  Play  Co.  developed  a plan to  upgrade  its  existing
management  information  system ("MIS") and computer hardware and to become year
2000 compliant.  Play Co. has now purchased the necessary  hardware and software
and is in the process of installing the software. Play Co. has completed the MIS
hardware  upgrade  and plans to finish  the year 2000  compliance  work in early
1999.

     To finance the cost of new hardware in the computer upgrade  project,  Play
Co. entered into a lease in the amount of $82,472 bearing  interest at a rate of
10.8%. The total cost of the hardware and software purchased for the project was
approximately $100,000.

     Beyond the above noted  internal  year 2000 system  issue,  Play Co. has no
current  knowledge of any outside third party year 2000 issues that would result
in a material negative impact on its operations. Should Play Co. become aware of
any such situation, contingency plans will be developed.

                  Trends Affecting Liquidity, Capital Resources and Operations

     As a result of its current merchandise mix, which emphasizes  specialty and
educational  toys, Play Co. enjoyed  significant  sales and gross profits in the
six months ended September 30, 1998. The mix of specialty and  educational  toys
includes  collectible die cast cars,  specialty  yo-yo?s,  Rokenbok and Learning
Curve toys, and Beanie Babies and other plush and many other  educational  toys.
While Play Co. believes that these  particular toys will remain popular with its
customer  base for the remainder of 1998,  there can be no assurance  that these
particular  specialty  toys will continue to  contribute  strongly to Play Co.?s
sales and gross  profits.  The history of the toy industry,  however,  indicates
that there is generally at least one highly popular toy every year.

     Play Co.?s  sales  efforts are focused  primarily  on a defined  geographic
consisting of the Southern  California area and the  Southwestern and Midwestern
United  States.  Play Co.?s future  financial  performance  will depend upon (i)
continued demand for high-end specialty,  educational,  and traditional toys and
management?s ability to adapt to continuously  changing consumer preferences and
the market for such items,  (ii) general economic  conditions  within Play Co.?s
geographic  market area,  as same may be expanded,  (iii) Play Co.?s  ability to
choose locations for new stores, (iv) Play Co.?s ability to purchase products at
favorable  prices and on  favorable  terms,  and (v) the  effects  of  increased
competition.

     The toy and hobby retail  industry  faces a number of  potentially  adverse
business  conditions  including  price and gross  margin  pressures  and  market
consolidation.   Play  Co.  competes  with  a  variety  of  mass  merchandisers,
superstores,  and other toy retailers,  including Toys R Us, Kay Bee Toy Stores,
Walmart,  and K Mart.  Competitors that emphasize specialty and educational toys
include Disney Stores, Warner Brothers Stores,  Learning Smith, Lake Shore, Zany
Brainy, and Noodle Kidoodle.  There can be no assurance that Play Co.?s business
strategy  will enable it to compete  effectively  in the retail toy  industry or
that Play Co. will be able to generate  sufficient  revenues or have  sufficient
control over expenses and other charges to increase profitability.

                  Inflation and Seasonality

     The impact of inflation on Play Co.?s  results of  operations  has not been
significant.  Play Co. attempts to pass on increased costs by increasing product
prices over time.

     Play Co.?s operations are highly seasonal with approximately  30-40% of its
net sales historically falling within Play Co.?s third quarter,  which coincides
with the Christmas  selling season.  Play Co. intends to open stores  throughout
the year, but generally  before the Christmas  selling  season,  which will make
Play Co.?s third  quarter  sales an even greater  percentage of the total year?s
sales.
