TWINKLE Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 My daughter has written her letter to Santa, and when I went to get the last item to-day it was gone. You can normally find him in King Jouet or Joué Club toy shops but they've completely run out. I've tried on-line and no luck there either. I'm scared that it won't get here on time if I order him on e-bay.Has anybody seen him in the shops around their region? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Katie Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Is it just a French thing or do you think I could get one in Argos or Toys R Us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWINKLE Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 Yes! That's him!I saw him on Friday and then to-day he was gone! I know I should have bought him on Friday but there was a huge queue in the shop and I had to pick my daughter up from school.I don't know if they sell them in Britain - I'm going to have a look on-line.

Russethouse Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Doesn't the eBay lising say 'Bought in England' ? In which case maybe he is marketed under another name in the UK here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWINKLE Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 Yes that's him!But it says he won't be available for another 3 weeks which could mean a bit more with la Redoute so he wouldn't get here on time.I'm going to try to find him under another name in the British shops on-line. I have a feeling I won't be going to bed to-night. Thanks Gay[:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I found him via Kekoo.fr - try looking there - I didn't see others but I only looked at the first page. If we knew his name in the UK we could try Kelkoo.uk.How about asking the ebay seller what it says on her box ? You could come up with a reason, no doubt.[;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
