WWE, JAKKS TEAMING UP FOR CHARITY

With a lawsuit pending between the two, World Wrestling Entertainment
and JAKKS Pacific are teaming up to raise money for charity with limited
edition action figures. The makers of the WWE action figures, will
provide 5,000 never before released Hillbilly Jim figures which WWE will
sell on the second annual Road to WrestleMania 21 Tour. All proceedings
from the sales will go to the Make a Wish Foundation. The Road to
WrestleMania 21 starts on January 21st in Stamford, CT., and will make
stops in 15 major markets. "The release of this limited run, highly
collectible Hillbilly Jim figure will serve as a terrific piece of
memorabilia for longtime WrestleMania fans and new collectors alike,"
said Jeremy Padawer, Director of Marketing-Boys Action, JAKKS Pacific.



JAKKS TO LAUNCH NEW WWE GAME IN 2005
- A new kind of WWE game will hit the market next year thanks to JAKKS
Pacific and their TV Games technology. Today JAKKS announced a worldwide
licensing agreement with WWE to develop and market WWE TV Games, a
plug-it-in and play gaming system with multiple games based on WWE
Superstars all in one single controller. WWE TV Games will feature new
games based on top WWE Superstars from the past to the present. All that
is needed to play the TV Games products are batteries and a TV -- no
videogame consoles or gaming cartridges are required. Simply plug the TV
Games product into the A/V jacks of any standard television set, turn it
on and play! The lightweight, compact, all-inclusive controller houses a
combination of videogames with all of the hardware and software built
right in. More at jakkstvgames.com



WWE FIRES BACK AT JAKKS PRESS RELEASE OF NEW WWE GAME
After the press release was issued earlier today by JAKKS Pacific
announcing the new WWE TV Games, WWE issued a statement in response to
the press release saying that the amendment was signed in July of 2004
at a time when WWE was still gathering facts related to the matters set
forth in the recent lawsuit. The statement also says that JAKKS did not
seek current authority from Donna Goldsmith, Senior Vice President of
Consumer Products at WWE, whose quote was also included as part of the
press release. WWE says that at the time Goldsmith approved the quote,
but it no longer remains the view of Ms. Goldsmith or the management of
WWE. The quote in question was, "JAKKS has demonstrated its expertise in
developing WWE products that epitomize our brand and which are
compelling to our fans. We are excited to expand the WWE brand by
combining its unique personality with JAKKS' exceptional TV Games
product to effectively extend the WWE experience into an even more broad
world of gaming."
