“These ‘Road Raptors’, as they have been called, have been an instant hit in AO toy stores. These Raptors, a little bigger than the size of a Bike, are the newest fad in AO. They have a limited AI, so that the rider will not be put into danger while riding them. There is a control panel were the rider sits, so that he/she can control the Raptor. There is also a luggage compartment in the back, for bookbags or whatever else the rider wants to carry with him/her. The Riders currently sell for about 1,000 Credits. The manufacturers of this toy, Imanginate Co., are already interested in selling this product to other nations, to sell in those countries as well. Imaginate has also announced that the Raptor Riders are only the 1st product in a line of “Dino” toys.

To the CEO or other leading manager of the Imaginate Company:

We of the Resi Corporation greet you, and are impressed that you have developed such a successful product. As such, we would like to offer our services by taking you on as a Resian company, and giving you our level of technology and A.I. to toy with.

well, the things sell for about 1,000 Credits each, so.....with shipping.....1,050 Credits each?

Resi: What do you mean? Are you saying you want to buy us? I'm sorry, but the rights to the Road Raptors and our compony are not for sale.

I'm sorry, but the rights to the Road Raptors and our compony are not for sale.((OOC: Actually, I was explicitly trying NOT to say that we wanted to buy the company, because the initial response to us buying companies is always "OMGz, NO!!!1! IT IS TEH MINE!!1!". This means that your response was a tad better than average. :P ))
IC:
We are sorry to hear your decision. Should you change your mind, we will always be here.

New Genoa will purchase two Road Raptors. They will be examined to see if they are fit/safe for New Genoese people. After that, we'll allow companies to place bids for production rights (they'd pay you each month/year for whatever amount they're allowed to produce), pending your approval of course.

2 Raptors will be shipped to you shortly.

Rights for production CAN be sold, but overall copyrights will not be (just to avoid confusion).
We will await the bids.

From the research offices of Designwerks


Congratulations on the recent success of your "Road Raptor" product line! We hope that this technology is a continuing success in both local and international markets.

However, we have come to contact you for a reason relating to your newest product: a feasible mechanized form of bipedal locomotion. The researchers of Designwerks have been searching for a replacement to the bulky and clumsy prosthetic limbs that amputees and paraplegics are currently confined to, and we think that the locomotion technology behind your "Road Raptor" series of toys might be the breakthrough we are looking for. Please contact us; we are more than willing to entertain any offers you might have.

We thank you for your willingness to provide us with research materials regarding the technology behind your "Road Raptor" product line. The potential advances in locomotion of this sort would be nothing short of miraculous for the countless millions who are suffering with debilitating muscular diseases and injury, and we would like to secure an agreement as soon as possible.

We normally wouldn't know how much of a price to place on such technology, but we are willing to make an initial offer of $1,000,000,000 to secure all research data along with roughly 2,500 of your products for reverse engineering purposes.

Let us know if this is an acceptable offer for your company,

OOC: ya, that be a typo. I tend to make alot of them.

IC: It is an acceptable offer. However, the production rights to the actual Raptor toy itself shall remain in our hands.

In other words, you may have the tech for the medical reasons you stated, but no companys may make the actual toy.
