Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Sweeping Upsurge

As the atmosphere within Creed Store was in between waves of settling and excitement, Alexander along with the Jovovich entourage had to take their exit.

The crowd surge was just beginning after all and it was better to stop there as the market investigations were more than enough to clue people in on the possibilities of Creed Toys.

The Jovovich ladies also just wanted to join in on the visiting fun and not buy anything as Milla was already spoiling-ly spoiled by the old Creed who just wanted the feeling of being a normal grandfather.

How could Sullivan even surprisingly gift the stoic Alexander who mostly oversaw the making of the toys? His grandson was better off being spoiled with companies to manage in the old man's opinion.

Of course, as much excitement and fun that toys had for Milla, she still can't help but ask her friend toy-maker for clarifications.

"Alex, why didn't your new company include Charlie toys if Bulma, April, and Cheetara have their own toys?"

Milla was quite troubled by that arrangement. Her comic girlfriends were having their physical forms yet hers has none... well, except for the real her.

"The size ratio wouldn't quite nicely with how we scaled up the Autobots and Decepticons." Alexander explained. "If we make Charlie's size coherent to what we made, then she'd have to be really small. If we make her doll-size, then she'd be a giant human that can rival Bumblebee and the others."

Even Alexander himself had noticed by now how he was stressing out balance and was really bordering himself upon the OCD side of the spectrum.

Still, flexibility is key, so he added Milla with Charlie toy euphemism. "Of course, that's not to say that Charlie won't have her toy version. When special requests are more than enough, then a Charlie doll should be made available to the market. It would break the toy immersion though but at least fans such as yourself would be given relief."

"Yey!" Milla cheered herself up with that.

It would seem that she can't wait for a mini-teen and fictional version of herself to be available. Alexander did know the appeal of such a toy chance though as it is considered as a semi-immortalization move.

Just as how Wil Wheaton became Sheldon's enemy for his unsigned Wil Wheaton toy and how the Howard and Raj duo has a fixation with 3D printers to doll themselves up.

Alexander hadn't really considered that 3D immortalization factor of things, so he could quietly ponder and deliberate as he walked towards the car. Meanwhile, Milla was joyously humming from Charlie's toy news as she walked alongside him

The duo just had a weird dynamic by now that Miss Galina who was overseeing them could only shake her head and leave things at that.

At least Milla was happy-go-lucky to Galina's ease while Alex was still scarily talking business with ease. There was no doubt in Galina's mind that the boy truly led the way into the making of those toys she had seen.

Even an adult like herself can't help but get caught up in the toy browsing enjoyment, how could others from all the other comic stores fare better than her?

Miss Galina's swept-up emotions were clearly not an isolated incident as Creed Store alone had a lot of people were sightseeing and even grabbing up the amazing toys on display.

The toy sweeping fever was maximized even further as the many comic book stores within the Creed Comics and Creed Toys distribution radar had been infected as well.

It was just within Alexander's plan to hit the industry with an explicit and hidden surprise combination. Costly advertisements weren't needed as he just had the fans make up the advertisement in their heads.

Every tenth and the ten-divisible issue clearly meant that the sought-after Volume Books were the next one to go, so a mass Volume Book release was the perfect lure.

Like lulling prey into thinking that they were the hunters, the comic book fans prepared themselves with cash to take home the new addition to their Volume Book collection.

By the time they reached out to ensnare their targets, it turns out that they were truly underprepared as a selection of a much numerous eye-catching targets came into their selectively narrowed vision.

Their targets shifted quickly and the new toy merchandise was sure to be bought.

When they finally widen their gaze from Volume Books and towards the Creed selections, they would still think they are the capable hunter with much bountiful harvest.

Masterfully overlooking the entire process was the TRUE hunter whose main goal was the pockets of the 'preys' who thought they were the hunters.

As confusing and perplexing that the hunter-prey and target-lure relationship was, Creed Comics and Toys was sure to have won out against everyone else.

They were at a much overlooking height and advantageous vantage point. All they had to do was count and tabulate the sales while changing up the strategy if needed.

If this certain merchandise has the lowest sales and profit margin, then the study of why it is the lowest, how to change that, and what to do with it is up next.

If a certain merchandise has middling results, then research on its specs and customer response and reactions was needed.

If a certain merchandise is a high achieving, then it was still a study and research methodology with the aims of emulating it unto the others or improving on the merchandise itself.

Product producing companies follow the same route of operations and Creed Entertainment's Comics and Toys did that with practice and adjustments.

When the next batch of products and all that was up for market release, then the company would have a better tune to the pros and cons of things, which should hopefully better their performance from that point and onward.

However... how could the company or companies in that matter, improve themselves when they are already high achieving in the first wave?

The Volume Book lure and the silent shock debut of Creed Toys were just way too effective for the market trend to get around from.

Everyone just wanted their own Volume Book copies and toy units to the point that they came in droves. When everyone late at the party found out about the Creed Christmas surprise, they just rush to whatever they could catch up to.

When someone bought one, someone else would want one as well, the continuity would ensue until everyone interested would want one of their own.

The Creed growing fanbase for the past months was just staggeringly growing and the Christmas bonuses and the toy sweeping spree had called out to their spending spirit.

With the right Holiday timing and timely strategy, the sales were just whoppingly spiking and the units available were slowly being sold out.

It had to be said that toy production had been quite short, so the units available were relatively quite scarce.

In the wake of the available and readied merchandise slowly creeping towards the 'sold out' mark, Creed Toys along with Creed Comics were now studying to cope with such scenarios to come.

They might have to worry about what merchandise was selling low, mid, and high for later as they had the demand upsurge to deal with.

In any case, the December release was eventful for everyone who was involved in it as they were in shock and awe of what was happening before their very observations.
