    Here are the rules for Florida regarding sweepstakes/games of chance. From a quick read through, it looks like all they had to do to make the comp open to Florida residents is sign a contract and pay a $100 filling fee.

    EDIT: There is also a third party who would have to guarantee the value of the prizes if by some off chance the biggest toy company in the world goes bankrupt by the end of the year.

    The company I work for runs few comps and we have similar laws over here for 'games of chance' except each state has it own specific rules and registration process so 99% of the time we just do a 'game of skill' like answer this question in 25 words or less.

    I couldn't find any definitive answer on the amount that Mattel would have to pay the third party to guarantee the value of the prizes, but I found one mention of 1-2% of total prize value. Assuming that's right, <$300 on the bond + $100 filling fee + getting one the lawyers they'd have on staff to give everything a quick read over = extending the competition to a state of almost 20 million people. Repeat that again for another 20 million in New York and it seems like a no brainer.
